41. I remember this being discussed before....
wish I had saved the thread but someone looked up the guys web site and found his name and from there could find out many more things. They posted (not here but on the original forum) his address, name, phone number and I believe maybe even how much his house was worth. Boy did that guy get mad!

It is one thing to talk the talk and say you would only be mad if you had something to hide. It is a totally different thing when all of a sudden all of your information is put out there. Well it is the same thing with the government only stronger. There is no law stating you may not google someone and post their information but with our government there is a law and, in fact, a constitution. That constitution guarantees your privacy no matter who is in office. (Democratic or Republican) I would put forth that if it is all on the up and up then they would go through the courts to get warrants. Why would you not go through the transparency of a court system (I believe the stats are that the court has turned down one warrant for wire tapping with this administration) unless you are doing something you do not need to be doing?

I think all of us are for wiretapping and catching terrorists as long as it is done within the legal confines of the law.
