Exactly. Trying to wave this around to justify domestic surveillance of the entire US is ridiculous.

I read in the foreign press, btw, that the latest AQ explosive device is clothing that is soaked in an explosive solution and allowed to dry - and then makes its wearer into a walking bomb. I’m not sure how it’s triggered, but it’s apparently undetectable by any method we now use.

Obama's internal polls must show the NSA thing has seriously damaged his standing with the democrat base.

I heard the news about the liquid explosives - I don't know if I believe that either.

Its a shame we don't have a competent news media anymore.

Considering Obama just wrote AQ a check for $500 million, their R&D efforts have probably taken a giant leap forward.
