These enabling twits think they are helping our country with finding and dealing with terrorists. But what they are doing is enabling an out-of-control arm of Obama (and his like) government to find and destroy real patriots in this country. Those who believe in basic freedoms affirmed to us by the Bill of Rights. To me it is criminal dereliction of sworn duty.

and should back increased collection as a means of foiling terrorist attacks.

What a quisling ass, last I looked all the terror attacks were committed by MUSLIMS WE IMPORTED, Why don’t we STOP IMPORTING MUSLIMS and deport the ones here.

Islam is incompatible with civilized society, always has been.

Bill Clinton had 1400 FBI records to keep Congress, Senate, SCOTUS in line with his will. Obama needs to spy on 330,000.....

From the article behind the link:
"Senate leaders have introduced a bill that would allow the NSA to continue collecting phone records."

...just to let that sink in a little. They're all politicians, and most of them are lawyers.

We need 24 hour-a-day surveillance on ALL elected DemocRATS, and it needs to be recorded on video.

The IRS was a perfect example of violating the rights of Citizens,
and nothing has happened yet. Maybe our elected leaders think it's
a-ok now since the rule of law doesn't exist for them.
