The border is a piece of the puzzle no doubt, the war on terror is a very big puzzle.
TREASON is being committed by LEFTISTS....

The lawsuit was filed by the ACLU on behalf of scholars, lawyers, journalists and nonprofit groups that communicate with people in the Middle East that they fear might be targets for surveillance. Given that the TSP is only conducting surveillance on individuals and groups that have ties to Islamic terrorist groups, it raises some suspicion that the ACLU and the groups they represented in the suit might be communicating with people whose mission is to kill and maim as many American men, women, and children as they can.

It's reasonable to believe most people would expect to have their phone calls monitored by the government if they were talking with extremists that have taken a vow to destroy our country. And the vast majority of Americans would also expect our government to constantly monitor the conversations and activities of suspected terrorists in this country and around the world.

Prior to Taylor's ruling, no American court had ever ruled that a U.S. president did not have the authority to conduct such surveillance programs. Even though not a single specific abuse of the TSP has been found, and despite the fact that it has proven successful in helping to stop terrorist attacks, Taylor took the unprecedented step to terminate the program.
