As for, "and who watches the watchmen," it looks like there are large numbers of people who consider their role to be watchmen watchers. Among these are those who exercise their free expression and the entire range of freedoms listed in the Bill of Rights. Those of you who feel compelled to turn over every stone in pursuit of mistrusting the government will continue to do so, I presume.
The overriding issue of placing one's trust in the U.S. Government is a character issue, I think. If you are not comfortable with such notions, you won't be doing it. If you believe that doing exactly that is one of the hallmarks of good citizenship, then you probably will. The suggested vigilance that keeps being brought up here does not obviate a basic trust. Perhaps you believe that it does.
