Well put, Snuggly. Who knew animated bears were so wise, or sarcastic?

much truth is said in jest.

Some people wouldn't know the truth if it slapped them in the face, which it has, and was duly ignored. The so called warrantless wire tapping was aimed at connections from known/suspected terrorists OUTSIDE the USA contacting or being contacted by parties inside the USA. It was not aimed at private citizens talking to their mothers. Why are you people so in a twist over this? Something to hide maybe? Involved in voter fraud or political campaign scams? Afraid to get caught? I find it interesting that those who scream about freedoms the loudest are the very ones who wish to take those freedoms from people who disagree with them. I have nothing to hide and if some one wants to listen in on my phone they are more than welcome to be bored to death.

reason, I hope you're just trolling.

reason, are you joking? Current FISA law already allows that, even in domestic cases. In fact they allow the president to start wiretapping 72 hours in advance without a warrant. There is also support to extend that time period up to 10 days. Over the decades of use, the FISA courts have only rejected 4 or 5 warrants. Since this is the case, why do we need warrantless wiretapping? We don't, unless you want to wiretap people that you have no possible justification to wiretap.

Quite frankly, I don't think you know what you are talking about. I find that people that want to give away our freedoms (while claiming that other people "must have something to hide") are usually woefully ignorant of history and woefully ignorant in general.
