...to secretly eavesdrop on Americans without a search warrant or not to secretly eavesdrop on Americans without a search warrant...that is the question.
Revelations in the news today - only after a NYT times piece came out after a year in hiding - that Dubya OK'ed the NSA to conduct eavesdropping, technically intelligence surveillance, on Americans after 9/11 and it possibly turns out mostly on Muslims.
Conundrum - is that ok or is that not ok...since they're Muslims. Does white bread America think it's ok for darker-skinned peoples to be spied on, considering the coincidence that most of our terrorist attacks were by these same people? Or do we remind ourselves that we're all citizens no matter the color and should not expect secret spying without our knowledge.
I guess if I knew I had nothing to hide, it doesn't matter, let them conduct their surveillance in hopes of routing the bad people, but then again, when you're dealing with the federal government and you don't know the intentions and you have this little thing called the Patriot Act, well, I'd just like to know what the hell is going on behind the scenes.
