No one cares to address the DoJ request of Google or privacy rights. This is the issue to slam on. This issue of privacy and first amendment rights is the wedge issue.

1. and the moderators always ask the wrong questions.
Rather than inquiring about privacy issues, they ask what the caller has to hide.

Lou Dobbs asked whether we need to sacrifice national security for privacy, and that's not an either/or proposition.

The enablers of Bush's Gestapo are really assisting in muddying the waters. Who would have guessed that defending the constitution would be perceived as being weak on terror.

3. Maybe they're too shitfaced from Friday night parties to dial the phone

4. someone made a good case yesterday at the hearing--when it affects
them personally (find their name on a list of whose who access porn sites for example)--THEN there is an outrage.

But you are right--good wedge issue IF the Dems can capitalize on it.
