You see...
I was raised with the suspicion that there were government contracted agencies out there that tapped wires and read e-mails, snail mail, and all of this rot in the first place.
So seeing it come public doesn't shock me. It doesn't disturb me any more than it did when I saw my first spy movie or wherever I came up with that idea.
I don't know if I agree with all of the crap that happens in our nation, but I definitely know that I am basically unable to do anything about it. Even if they were to upturn the patriot act and impeach Bush, wire-tapping would still be a reality. People will still be imprisioned for being different -- Muslim perhaps -- whatever the fad may be.
It's a bunch of bull.
No real change will occur until people themselves change. If there are no corrupted individuals, there will be no corrupt government. But we are human, and with that we are flawed. Those that are the most gullible seem to be the ones that are leading our own little Christian counter-jihad.
Whatever.
There are movements in the world to change things. Maybe one day one of them will work.
In the meantime, let them wire tap. People will only talk in code.
