If our lawmakers saw fit to spend, what will turn out to be, trillions of dollars on NSA facilities/expenses/sub-contractors to spy on everyone, Corker just confirms how twisted their priorities are. We weren't supposed to know, much less discover, that they would rather drain the federal budget on security while drowning in a sea of debt the very people they are so concerned about protecting. It's twisted. I thought I'd heard it all.
