The gist of the point is that the whole notion of secret wiretaps with secret lists (however long or short) goes against one of this country's most fundamental principles, the right against search and seizure without a warrant. The whole problem with secret anything is NO ONE (except for them) knows who they are looking at and our rights as Americans GUARANTEE us the right to NOT have them looking at us without just cause. If you're right (and it would be wonderful if you were), they're not looking at anyone but those people who they think are terrorists. I don't think they have the scruples to keep from looking in other places on other people that they don't have just cause to look at because they're looking for just cause.
They're spying on American citizens. How does that not concern you, regardless of whether or not you have something to hide?
