Today I saw in passing a news headline saying, that president Bush calls it a disgrace that the newspaper New York Times has revealed how US-authorities secretly track financial transactions and movements as part of the "War on Terror".
Now, is it the article in the newspaper the president is after, or a possibly unconstituional monitoring of financial transactions??
Does anyone know?
Or else I just wait until the news on TV tonight

If the US Government is doing something such as this, the public has every right to know. They has every right to know that their phone calls were being monitered, and this is no exception.
uh huh the IRS gets to monitor alot of monetary activity as well as if you play on the stock exchange or have a broker any transactions that would be considered a "large" purchase are typically monitored anyway.
