Bush: U.S. Doesn't Eavesdrop on Phone Calls of 'Ordinary' Americans

It all depends on the meaning of the word "ordinary".

An AP newswire article, via CNN, reports that:

President Bush insisted Tuesday that the United States does not listen in on domestic telephone conversations among ordinary Americans.

The president did not respond directly, however, when asked whether it was a violation of privacy for the National Security Agency to seek phone records of millions of people from telephone companies.
