A Heckuva Job

Yesterday, President Bush said “the privacy of ordinary Americans is fiercely protected in all our activities.” Why didn’t he just say, “I think federal agencies are doing a heckuva job protecting the privacy of ordinary Americans”? An argument can be made that terrorists pose a unique threat, etc., but stop it already on how fierce the state is protecting our privacy.
