I actually think the Clinton/Republican Congress years sets the new standard for me. A moderate Democratic President and a spend thrift Republican Congress.

May I come over to your house and open your mail, e-mail, and listen to phone conversations? If yes, then I'll be over in a few hours. If no, then you have your answer.

I think it would be more like looking through my mail (not stealing my mail, or opening my mail, just looking at the envelopes seeing who it is coming from and going to) If my mail is on public property when you do it, how am I a victim, how have I been harmed?
