Hmmm. The president is now saying that the new NSA phone call cull program "strictly target[s] Al Qaeda and their known affiliates." Yet USAToday says it pulls in the calls of tens of millions of Americans.

If al Qaida has really grown that large on the president's watch, isn't he doing something wrong?

Late Update: TPM Reader MC expands on the point: "Well Josh, we have captured 17,658 of Zarqawi's top lieutenants, so I think we can extrapolate several million members. They must be that new third party we keep hearing about."
