[Vision2020] Eavesdropping

Good heavens! Have you lived on this planet very long?? The knowledge of the
abuses by former presidents is long and well documented...I know several
people it happened to and with far less justification than 'national
security'. I have a question for you: If a person can buy a throw away cell
phone in a store (maybe a Wally World!) use if for the two hours there is
time for talk about bombs and then the number is no longer good how do you
think they should get a warrant? Communications are in a different world
than when the constitution was written...no we should not throw it out, but
we should give our government room to work within the changes. You and many
others keep saying it is domestic spying but they are monitoring calls
internationally...especially from those Arab countries that so many are up
in arms about right now. You all talk out of both sides of your mouth...not
in ports but don't listen on calls. Sometimes I wonder if you are in any way
aware of the complexities of this world.

Phil,

This is my third and last post for today, so I'll have to take it up
tomorrow but if all you say is true, why haven't you or don't you go to
press with it?

James
