His lips are moving

[Welcome to the Blend, Wonkette readers...]
He called a hasty press conference this AM. I guess the spinning will be endless all the way up to the State of the Union hot air festival.
Holding his first news conference of the year and his 10th in office, Bush previewed some elements of his upcoming State of the Union speech and continued to defend his administration's program of warrantless domestic surveillance.What was that?
Talking about the National Security Agency eavesdropping program, Bush said "there's no doubt in my mind it is legal."
He repeated that it is "legal, designed to protect civil liberties and it's necessary."
Oh, and how about this picture from yesterday, a look at the real threat:
