Where's the exaggeration? These are the official stated positions of the Bush administration.

Yes. You ARE safe from the horrible possibility of having agents of the federal government listen to your phone conversation without the OK of a federal judge.

By "towel-heads" do you mean US persons? Because that's the only group affected by this change. And through the FISA courts, they only had to get the Judge's permission 72 hours after they started tapping. Bush apparently thought even that was too restrictive.
