Meet the new boss (#1)

The District Court dismissed the complaint because then-President Bush and Vice President Cheney argued that state secrets would be exposed if the case were litigated. During oral argument before the 9^th Circuit, Obama echoed the state-secrets argument made by Bush and Cheney. Similarly, the president who promised "change" is wielding the tool of state secrets in aiming to dismiss, without the gathering of evidence, challenges to the National Security Agency's Terrorist Surveillance Program, which entailed warrantless phone or e-mail interceptions of American citizens on American soil in contravention of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978.

UPDATE:  Just a word to people who would make me out to be a hater.  I hate.  But note the title of this series of posts.  I hated W, too.  I just want to make sure people who voted for Obama realize that, when they said he was different, they were mistaken.
