The ACLU plans on running a new campaign entitled "don't spy on me". What the ACLU hopes to do (aside from using taxpayer dollars in an attempt to undermine our governments security) is gain enough support from American Citizens that Congress will start to listen to their propaganda.
Interestingly enough, I took a look at their website and their very first argument for sending this e-mail was "The recent terror plot exposed in the United Kingdom highlights the need to make sure our anti-terrorism resources are focused on al Qaeda operatives and not wasted on innocent Americans who have done nothing wrong. "
What does the ACLU think the NSA is doing??? Does the ACLU realistically think that the NSA and FBI are tapping into phone lines to find out who has been cheating on their taxes? Or maybe this multi-million dollar program is being used to find out who everyone is voting for in the upcoming elections?
Get a clue ACLU! "Innocent" Americans have nothing to fear from this program. The point of this program was to identify American citizens who were making contact with individuals on the Terrorist watch list. In fact, to the best of my knowledge, neither the NSA or FBI listened to any phone calls between 2 US citizens here in America, only when the phone call went overseas to 1 of about a dozen countries were the calls checked to see what the intentions were. Furthermore I do not believe any information obtained would be used in prosecuting individuals (I doubt any of our liberal judges would allow the tape of such conversations to be admitted into evidence). The information obtained would be used only to inform the FBI when and where a possible attack may occur so it can be stopped. All you have to do is read this recent article in USA Today to understand the necessity of this program.
I realize that the idea of the FBI listening to your phone calls may not be very popular in our "free" country, but lets face the facts... in a truly "free" country, one with no authority, no supervision, no accountability, we would have Anarchy. The sole purpose of Government is to protect the people, and our Armed Forces soldiers swear to defend our country from "all enemies, foreign and domestic".
As a law abiding citizen, I am 100% for this program and hope the judges ruling is overturned, and the NSA is allowed to continue. For those of you who are against this program, may I ask... What is it you have to hide?
