"Oh my fucking God, no one is safe! Bush and Cheney can wiretap anyone at any time, and they have the blessing of FISA to do it! It's such a travesty and mockery of our freedoms, the Founding Fathers would be rolling over in their graves... "
This is the typical hyped up response from Pinheads over the FISA renewal. I don't understand how they can get so worked up and agitated over things, I thought most liberals self-medicated to keep from being that way, but apparently not. They will act all incredulous and trot out the Constitution, like they know what it means, and as if they believe any of the words our Founding Fathers had to say. Most of the time we hear them preach to us that our Constitution is a "living document" and is not intended to remain true to what a bunch of slave-owning white men intended back in the day. Yet... all of a sudden, we are enlightened to the wisdom of Ben Franklin about security and liberty and how we are sacrificing both with FISA. I guess they keep a copy of the Constitution around just in case something comes up where they can use it against 'the establishment.' But they are so funny to listen to! It's like watching a circus act!
'Ladies and Gentlemen, I command your attention to the Center Ring, where we have the Amazing Monkey Man performing his wireless wiretapping, without the aid of a warrant! It is truly death defying! Watch as he defies the Constitution and betrays the rights of every soul on the planet, during this spectacle which will leave you awestruck and amazed...'
I mean, why such a production? Why such passion over this? FISA is the Surveillance Act for Foreign Intel, what is the Big Deal about that? Our Government's duty, some would argue it's MAIN duty, is to protect us from enemies abroad. Why do Liberals hold such contempt for our Government performing its primary function and duty?
Yeah, sure, there is a possible chance that Bush may accidentally wiretap some Liberal Gay Lovers planning to have a *gasp* wedding or something, but so freakin' what? Who got their rights violated, really? No president in his right mind is going to obtain private information about an American citizen through a warrantless wiretap, and they certainly wouldn't use it in any way that would indicate that is how they got it... look what happened to Nixon.
What seems to bother the Pinheads is the mere thought that Bush has this much power, but he is the President of the United States, he is supposed to have this power. Our nation and system of Government are set up to work a certain way, and they have been doing fairly well the past 200+ years. The FISA warrantless wiretapping issue has been a perfect illustration of the idiotic paranoia of the left, prompted by drinking all that Anti-Bush Koolaid for so long. Hate has clouded their judgement, so we see them do irrational things, like break out the Constitution and act like a bad Franklin impersonator.
Here is something to ponder, with all the fuss over wiretaps, we hear virtually nothing from the Pinheads on the cameras. Our CIA and FBI have access to almost all public cameras, and they are found in every nook and cranny of America. It's estimated the average American is on camera an enormous number of times in a day. There is also no law to prevent the Government from putting a camera on the telephone pole right outside your house. If they want to spy on you, for real, they can. And they can do it in a way you will never even know it, and they can also find out much more than through a wiretap. With the advent of wireless, and the digital technology found in modern cameras, it is amazing how small, obscure, and unnoticeable they have become. Apparently so, you don't hear a soul screaming about the cameras! It's just those damn wiretaps! Never mind that you or I can intercept almost any wireless frequency with equipment we can buy at Radio Shack. We mustn't allow our Government the tools needed to stop foreign terrorist attacks on us, it's too much of our freedom being sacrificed.
