Eh...
The federal government has absolutely NO BUSINESS what-so-ever SPYING ON US in order to know what we're discussing--UNLESS--we are threatening this country--by planning an attack on it--& or planning on doing something illegal--PERIOD.
So...you were AGAINST the Patriot Act?
THE PATRIOT ACT was enacted directly after 9/11 to protect the citizens of this country against another terrorist attack. You know it, I know it. AGAIN--you name me one single AMERICAN citizen who has had their rights violated by the Patriot Act. You can't--because there aren't any.
It's a long stretch from that-- to you don't like my proposal over Health Care & I want to know who you are. You might has well report the 52% of the American populace that are against this health care bill to this administration.
Seems to me they're more interested in what's being said than who is saying it. If somebody sends out a mass emailing filled with a bunch of BS about the proposed legislation it's out there in the public now. If someone forwards that to the WH, that's not spying.
Maybe after watching how RW spinmeisters and propangandists have operated over the last 15+ years this is just an attempt to counterract the bullshit. Nobody's rights are gonna get violated just because someone shares a chain email he received talking shit about the healthcare reform proposals.
