Re: Irrelevant; Old news;Then why post it here?

I don't even see it as a Partisan issue, personally. Carnivore was developed under Clinton; Patriot Act under Bush. It's simply a human issue. If one gets technical, you could say it's a Conservative issue since they believe in less government intrusion and smaller government. I see many people who suffer from partisan think disease "poo-poo" the issue. We need more enlightened thinking than that.

Re: Irrelevant; Old news;Then why post it here?

I don't see how indicating that I agree with the liberals on an issue is inciting partisan politics. You sound as if you discount my entire argument just because I used political affiliations to make my point.

The truth of that matter is that you're absolutely ~~right~~ correct. But there will invariably be groups of people who associate with each other who share similar beliefs. Those people aren't "unenlightened," they simply want to be heard.

Sorry, I was referring more to the first poster, who seems to immediately engage in partisan (defend GWB policy at all cost) punditry with mindless rhetoric about how people who'd criticize US surveillance policies must want to see the country "at the terrorist's mercy".... That's small thinking.
