    But that can't be...America need these programs in order to feel safe. You mean to tell me that terrorists were actually smarter than the American public and knew that this channels were being monitored? The absurdity of it all.

    However, it does raise a valid point that if intelligence officials knew that top level terrorists knew this was the case, why would they need to tap into these communications in the first place? Another question that should be openly asked and answered in Congress.

    Will it? Probably not, but it definitely sheds new light to the recording of information in a centralized database.

    I dont understand how obama and pals think spying will protect America, when theyre not even interested in guarding our borders.

    The russian government told obama and pals, the boston bombers were terrorists.... and obama and pals did nothing....

    No spying needed, and they killed 3 and injured 200.

    Napolitano already laid out who the administration really fears, and that's Americans that don't buy into the Obama agenda...

    Perception - In the early days of WW2 London was flooded with Anti Aircraft guns. The people felt safe, the population defiant to the threat of the Germans. The reality was the guns could not fire high enough to hit German aircraft at the time.

    It is mostly industrial espionage and insider information about trade deals, markets and so on, i doubt they even care to look on cases involving terrorism .... it is not that the Russians didn't warn them about the Tsanaev bros.

    In other news the Top Terrorism Expert had 11/9 under his watch, i wonder how incompetent mid range ones are.

    Very true. However, the only time I'll ever quote Lincoln, he actually got this one right:

    You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time. - Lincoln.

    Of course. However, remember, some voices will tell you that tyranny is right around the corner, and folks should reject these voices. Right Obama?
