So it begins.

Good.

They can start by arresting the librarians mentioned in this article, and sending them off to live in the Arab world. That way they can discover what real oppression is like.

You're right, our standard of comparison should always be the worst the world has to offer, not our very own Constitution.

Yeah, like knowing what books terrorists are interested in is really going to help this Vietnam War on Terrorism. Let's see, they like books on Islam, bomb making and 101 ways to slice and dice the infidel. God help you if you're caught doing anything that can be construed by police as violent in a political protest. That would officially make you a terrorist under the USA PATRIOT ACT. It declares anyone that uses any violence to influence the civil body politic to be a terrorist. Better hope you haven't been reading up on physics, computer networking and classical liberal writings.

On a different note, if the NSA does find how to get access to Al Qaeda's computer equipment they need to make a habit of flashing, "Hello Mr. Laden, all your Qaeda are belong to U.S." before the military bombs the target.

I'm with you on that buddy. These leftist librarians and their libertarian enablers need to feel what opression really is. I think they would change their tune rather quickly.

I am on the fence with this one. I agree that we should use all means necessary to root out Islamicist terrorists. But can you imagine Bill Clinton and Hillary being in charge of the FBI under this law? Good god. Anyone's library reading habits could be exposed, with one Clinton appointee judge signing the warrent in secret, for any "secret" cause. And the Librarians would be prosecuted if they raised a flag.

Picture this: You support the 2nd ammendment vigorously. On some internet forum, you state that you would rather fight than let the government confiscate your weapons, like what happenned in England. Hillary's stooges see that message, get a secret warrant to search what you have read in the library. You checked out a book on anything to do with homosexuality--just to gain info to fight back. They now have you under their thumb, threatening to expose your reading list to the public. In fact, they leak it to the press.

Under Clinton, this would happen.
