Also, a person as property is a prostitute. Shame on you for putting the US military in that category!

A person as property is a slave, not a prostitute

Lighten up. People in the military aren''t slaves or prostitutes, those are your words.
I am in the military in Iraq, and we all carry guns. In a military environment, it is important to weed out anybody who could do major harm to the rest of us, and if it takes a wiretap to keep me safe, so be it. Its very simple, if you are worried about the CIA or ''Bush''s boys'' listening in on your calls or reading your emails, don''t sign up. And if you aren''t trying to hide some nefarious plan, then you probably have nothing to worry about.

"The notion that General Hayden sanctioned or tolerated illegalities of any sort is ridiculous on its face."
Why is that notion so ridiculous? Apparently the people working at NSA are so brainwashed that the idea of questioning or having doubts about the actions of their superiors is unthinkable.

ANOTHER GOOD REASON TO DESTROY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

REPUBLICANS HAVE PUSHED UNLIMITED GOVERNMENT POWER TO WATCH EVERYTHING YOU DO- EVEN IN YOUR BEDROOMS

REPUBLICANS DO NOT CARE ABOUT OUR CONSTITUTION, OUR RIGHTS, OUR PRIVACY, OUR AMERICAN WAY.

I''m a pistol, rifle, and shotgun owner.

I''m a LOT more concerned about the Republicans who want to:
- eliminate my right to privacy
- eliminate my right to due process
- eliminate my right to demand a warrant before the government can intrude into my life
- reduce my right to speak freely without being labeled a "terrorist"
- restrict my right to assemble, protest, and petition the government without the Secret Service having me arrested,

I''m concerned about the precarious medical insurance I have, that could be taken away by a greedy insurance company at any moment- leaving me and my family bankrupt from medical bills.

I''m concerned about the militarism that has taken over the Republican party- a policy of placing our troops in harms way around the world for a "policy" of spreading democracy at the point of a gun while ignoring the real terrorist threats in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

I''m concerned about a "HANDS OFF" economic ideology that is enriching the already rich and leaving average folks behind.

I do not believe Obama can or would "take away my guns". The NRA is a narrow one-issue group that would throw away everything else in the altar of some kind of "PURITY". f''em.

"National Security Agency spokesman Patrick Bomgardner said some of the allegations have already been investigated by the agency and found to be unsubstantiated."

Does not matter to Dems. At this point in time its whatever fits their bill of getting their guy elected at all costs. Dig up dirt, new or old, make it up, pay people to lie, say its true knowing that it cannot be proven either way, all just in the process to win an election. Sad Sad Sad Sad state of affairs.

republic1776, I feel sorry for you. I can see the Constitution of the United States of America means nothing to you.

Military Service.
They signed a contract, they are U.S. Government Property.
Expected in Crisis, no violation.

This is certainly no surprise.

Yet another example of routine violation of American civil liberties by the Bush/Cheney crime syndicate supported by all Rethuglicans.

Vote all Rep''s out come election day
