..and calls going out of our country. They should be able to get the context in 30-60 seconds. They could dispose all calls that were deemed irrelevant. If they had direct leads to someone in this country, prosecutable evidence, then they should be able to listen to those types of domestic calls, also.

But no data base. There is no need to spy on the American people at large. Someone has to set limits with these characters. There has to be sufficient over-sight. I don't know if Feinstein's Committee is doing its job?
