Good point on C-SPAN about spying
How much is this costing us, where is the money coming from and what are they short-changing to do this? We all know how he either leaves things out of the budget or moves funds within that department to cover what he is doing. Just how much is the domestic spying costing us?

1. Time to bring out Wolfowitz ...
... so he can explain how "... this spying program WILL PAY FOR ITSELF." Just like the War in Iraq ...

4. That's been my point all along.
How many NSA Agents does it take to spy on a dragnet of a million US Citizens?? How much are we paying for the privelege of them going through our email and phone records and messing with our lives? The Rebulicans aren't allowed to bitch about "wanting government out of their business" anymore!! :grr:
