This has nothing to do with the Constitution and every thing to do with Whisp Aug 2013 #19

To convince people to not care about government spying on us because that helps ron paul. L0oniX Aug 2013 #107

If true, it is only because Democrats have ceded the ground on protecting civil liberties. hlthe2b Aug 2013 #16

Despite the attempts, no one is rushing into Rand Paul's camp. ProSense Aug 2013 #23

Precisely, because despite the insinuations we are all Democrats here. Pholus Aug 2013 #29

What does that have to do with the OP? n/t ProSense Aug 2013 #31

I will presume you're not being deliberately obtuse. Pholus Aug 2013 #38

Oh please, that's ProSense Aug 2013 #49

I'm just going by what other posters are saying. Pholus Aug 2013 #64

I guess ... 1StrongBlackMan Aug 2013 #43

...and then there's the Dems going right along with the Bush/repuke NSA DHS cause. L0oniX Aug 2013 #124

It is only the timing of our "republican support" that offends. Pholus Aug 2013 #151

You say, "no one is rushing into Rand Paul's camp"... ljm2002 Aug 2013 #175

Really? ProSense Aug 2013 #178

You're right, too much secrecy -and duplicity- breeds mistrust. Always. randome Aug 2013 #77

That's a problem old enough there is a Latin phrase for it Fumesucker Aug 2013 #93

"the quickest way for Obama to make this go away is to be candid and forthright about it." No, see stevenleser Aug 2013 #85

We have been lied to on a massive scale before regarding intelligence Fumesucker Aug 2013 #114

That's nice. I even mostly agree. But it doesn't address your point to which I responded. stevenleser Aug 2013 #119

Look, we all know for a fact Obama is lying about one major aspect of domestic policy Fumesucker Aug 2013 #143
