Don’t understand. Congress passed the Patriot Act which calls for this surveillance during the Bush admin. Why the sudden outrage? It’s been going on for over a decade.
Why is it that Obama does not get the message that America is being ridiculed by former and present totalitarian leaders because his regime is violating Constitutional rights of Americans?-The writers of the Patriot Act intended surveillance short term to search for planners of terrorism, by communicating with foreigners overseas. They warned that this law could be abused.-Now Obama and the Dept. of Injustice is abusing it bigtime.NSA and IRS and even the FBI are using the law for political purposes to keep power for the Democrats. That is a perversion of the law and an agenda never followed by GW Bush.-The current regime is storing billions of records of ordinary American to American communication and that goes far beyond temporary monitoring for national security for the moment! They have the ability to listen and read our phone calls and emails….even if they deny doing so. I do not believe their protests of “innocence” in building a Data Base this l984 type and size.
