I don't think you addressed the sleeper cell problem. As I wrote earlier, the suspects' data base remains, and the tracking. If you can't catch a sleeper cell in four years, by that time those who aren't caught had already figured out how to get around all this tracking anyway. Four years from now, we will have old laws on the books that only hurt innocent people. Yep, this was thought through a bit and discussed with others prior to posting. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the nerve to post the way I did.

Maybe you saw "Nightline" last night. You could have written the show. William Safire suddenly became the #1 authority on the Bush administration's violation of the publics privacy.

Except that at the very end, they had to admit that Safire was actually wrong and the true facts were nothing close to what Safire had claimed. In fact, all that is being proposed is a chance for interested parties and companies to take a shot developing a system to aid the CIA/FBI/NSA/ETC in sharing info.

But we must keep vigilant (!) the Bush-hating "expert" bleated at the end.

Oh, well...no harm done. Just another chance to weaken the President. All the better for the Leftists and murderers..
