Bush Administration To Rework Executive Order On Spying

A Michael McConnell has been appointed by Bush to redo the Reagan Administration's work with changes appropriate to post-2001 paranoia.

Some more educated on the process than I say in the AP article that this Administration's re-working of the 1981 presidential order "could threaten civil liberties protections approved by President Reagan following intelligence abuses in the 1970s...."

Ah- bet we can't guess what that means.
