I suppose Darrel Issa will now demand access to NSA records on the chance he can find some dirt!

They kept trying to tell us. Ike. Then JFK. And Senators Frank Church and Daniel Inouye. Then the revelations seemed to just stop. Maybe they were in control now. It all sounds so absurd, doesn't it? No one wants to even consider it. And if you repeat it, you're just another crazy CT. That's the beauty of it. It's a self-correcting system of oversight integrity which relies principally upon its victims to protect its existence through their own ignorance and incredulity. And through the constant use of ridicule against those able to see things more objectively and realistically, they maintain a consistent hard outer shell made of incredulous, unknowing people. Because it is understood in our society that being accused of being stupid is the one thing an truly ignorant person hates to be accused of the most.

All the taps that JEdgar did didn't seem to bother anyone, including the ACLU.

And that is why J Edger Hover stayed in office so long...he had dirt on everyone in Washington.
But now they have dirt on anyone they want...any time they want...which would explain why most democrats roll over every time when it counts...

they were unable to make the simple discovery that the Teabaggers made: Obama is a Kenyan born Muslim.

Obviously the NSA lacks imagination.
