Maybe they need it so Janet Napalitano can go after all those military veterans, umm... I mean right-wing extremists?

When the dems are the minority they pretend to hate big brother, when the GOP is in the minority they also pretend to hate big brother.

The fact is both those parties are working to undermine our freedom in the name of security. Pretty soon we are going to be Britain, an entire nation under CCTV, every conversation and email wired and tapped. And sadly, no one cares.

True conservatives are anti-big brother, majority or minorty...most liberals just pretend to be. Sadly, not alot of true conservatives in congress.

there's not a lot of true conservatives, period. There are a whole lot of Texes, and IndyCougs, and Mitt Romneys. Partisans. Stooges of the oligarchs.
