The Daily Record editorial today goes after Chris Christie over the warrantless tracking of cell phones his office did while US Attorney. Christie is trying to defend his actions and attack the people raising the objections, but the Record isn't buying it:At the same time, the notion of tracking individuals without warrants is troublesome -- just like searching someone's home without a warrant would be troublesome. Christie suggests that those tracked were "fugitives or violent felons." Could be. But if they posed such a threat to the safety of average citizens, a warrant probably would have been easy to get. Christie wants you to believe he did enough, but like the editorial says, a warrant should have been easy to get. Scott Weingart wrote yesterday about how Christie's decisions and actions ignored the constitution. Clammyc had some questions for candidate Christie about his actions. Many would say that calling it troublesome is putting it generously. |
