Best post from the ABC story

From the comments page on ABC site (first quoting a prior post):

"Personally, as I don't call anyone associated with Al Qaeda, I don't CARE if the Government tracks me, listens to me or records me. Only the guilty should be nervous."

If the government isn't guilty of anything, they shouldn't be nervous about their secrets being leaked.

4. Republicans are sheep; and happy about it.

There is no value which they don't share with what the public record reflects about Osama Bin Laden.

So typical

6. yeah but what if this person called someone who called someone

who ordered pizza from somewhere and that place called someone who called an Al-Qaeda. Your linked asshole!

Also, who thinks that terrorists are using cellphones still? If they really did orchestrate 9/11, are they really dumb enough to call Bin Laden on a two-way?

7. Fuck the Constitution!.....We're too scared of terrorists!

What a bunch of fucking cowards. They must spend every waking moment shaking in their booties and waiting for the terrorists to show up at their door.

ChimpCo is spying on their political opposition, the media, and everyone else in the country, just for good measure.

Sad when people can't recognize fascism rearing it's ugly head again.

8. That poster won't mind if I leaf through his wallet then,

or when I call and thank him for selling me the yellowcake uranium.

9. He could be and not know it.

And under the USA PATRIOT ACT, he's just as guilty even if he doesn't know.
