There was a time when conservatives cared about the release of sources and methods. Apparently that time has passed.

I do see one, possibly two, of the posts here expressing that.

That was when entire swaths of decent patriotic American people were not designated as terrorists by law enforcement, in military exercises, in government propaganda, in the statements of the President, and when they were not the primary targets of our intelligence agencies.

As the Allman Bros sang,,, “that was then,,,, this is now”

There was a time when our most dangerous enemy wasn’t our own government.

We used to see these groups as defenders. People who safe-guarded the nation...

There was a time when government employees cared about the Constitution. Apparently that time has passed.

Conservatives still care about the Constitution.

That was back when we and the government agreed on who the enemy was. Now these technologies have been re-purposed by our government to attain more power over the American people.
