I think the Constituion is pretty specific in its 4th amendment rights to search and siezure.
Look, bottom line is this, we need congressional oversight and we need judges signing warrants.
We have 3 branches of government and without it these spying things are illegal and the attorney general needs to be held accountable.
To think he was almost put on the supreme court.

The right to privacy is not mentioned in the Constitution, but the Supreme Court has said that several of the amendments "create" this right. One of the amendments is the Fourth Amendment, which stops the police and other government agents from searching us or our property without "probable cause" (I'd say calling terror suspects is probable cause) to believe that we have committed a crime.............so if you're not speaking with terrorists you should have nothing to hide and therefore, NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. BTW, the government is NOT interested in listening to your proctologist give you the results of your mental health exam. They're busy PROTECTING your sorry butt from more terrorist attacks.

It's a double edged sword isn't it?
Without doubt there are people here who want nothing more than to just kill us all and proclaim our country a servant to Islam. I doubt that many would like to see that happen.
Since they wear no uniforms and blend in with you and I, we have two options.
1. Survey, monitor, infringe on every citizens rights or
2. Round all the middle-easterners up and put them in government housing like we did the Japanese.
Since the ACLU would never allow for rounding them up because according the them, even terrorists have rights, we are left with having our rights stripped away.

I think they should arrest everyone who hates the country such as yourself. You are an obvious threat to the safety of those around you. You would stand by and watch your neighbor beat to death and tell your self you weren't a coward you just did not want to offend the man that killed your neighbor.

It's not a question of how far should we go . . . . it's a question of how far we must go . Life is more important . And if we don't stop these Radical Islamists then we won't have 'life' or anything else to argue about .

"CLINTON'S FIRST-LADY RECORDS LOCKED UP". ARCHIVISTS SAY THE DOCUMENTS AT HER HUSBAND'S PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY WON'T BE RELEASED UNTIL AFTER 2008 VOTE. OTHER RECORDS KEPT FROM PUBLIC VIEW INCLUDE A 1993 MEMO TO THE FIRST LADY ENTITLED "POSITIONING OURSELVES ON HEALTHCARE," AND ANOTHER FROM THAT YEAR CALLED "PUBLIC PORTRAYAL OF THE MEDICARE PROGRAM."
