    Hello again, Steve:

    Well, of course, you don't like it when they bust down your door. THAT part of the Fourth Amendment you're cool with. But, when it comes to the surveillance state, all I've heard from you is (1) they're not listening to me, or (2) if they are, they're not interested.

    That doesn't sound, to me, like you're too outraged about it - certainly not like you are about your front door. If I'm implying incorrectly, straighten me out.

    The only thing I have defended that has you in a tizzy is monitoring possible terrorist communications originating from overseas. From that one thing you surmise I don't care about your rights - against all other evidence.

    Hello again, Steve:

    Oh, I get it. You TRUST 'em! Doesn't sound very right wing of you... Oh yeah, that's right. These are the COP parts of government that gives you guys thrills up your legs.

    Again, try for a change being honest about my position instead of misleading others about it. I would imagine we both get thrills up our leg from the same thing(s) and that doesn't include cops or Obama. Unless maybe it's one hot lady cop.

    So you often choose sarcasm ("A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule.") to communicate here. Why not speak to people with a minimum of respect like an adult?
