While I would LOVE to blame this on Carter, he really had no choice on this - the public was demanding (as too the Congress) that this act be passed. He probably supported it, but then again so did Reagan & Bush I. President Reagan actually "worsened" the situation with several executive orders.

Up until 9/11 - NO ONE would have dreamed of questioning the FISA Act. The author is right - WE did this to ourselves.

Enough headhunting already! Let's find a way to make it work AND protect our rights - it CAN be done.

True and correct. The peanut farmer from Plains was president in 1978.

Sainthood? I think he's already had two miracles attributed to him:

Haiti

North Korea

And he's a Nobel Laureate, no less.

Sainthood? Jimmah Cahtah? ROFLOL!!!!

The "wall" problem started with another liverlipped camera-hog from my (formerly) home state of Idaho, senator Frank Church and his subversive pro-communist buddies on his commission in 1978.
