Americans split on Bush spying without court warrants
An AP Ipsos poll shows a majority want court approval before eavesdropping on U S citizens inside the United States even if linked to terrorism. While 56 percent call for warrants, 42 percent agree warrants are unnecessary. Bush defends the program as vital to national security. Age and party affect views, with younger people and Democrats more in favor of warrants. The NSA runs the eavesdropping, amid broader debate on legality and checks and balances.
