Sen. Kit Bond, the ranking Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee, attempted to assure Americans that the new measure does not encroach on their rights "unless you've got al Qaeda on speed dial."

2. Bwhahaha!

:rofl:

I seem to recall them saying the same thing after the Military Commissions Act of 2006.

I can't remember if that was before or after they tortured Jose Padilla out of his mind on blatantly false charges.

7. Don't you hate it when you try to order a medium peperroni and

you get a car bomb instead? Really puts a damper on the party.

4. Well thank you Kit Bond. Now I feel so much better. I don't have

to worry about being spied on if I'm not doing anything wrong. And since this spying is going on under the veil of secrecy what does it matter. They can make it up. Just like they did about Don Siegleman.
