Obama Maintains Bush's "Eavesdropping" Program

Funny, but I thought this was called "spying on Americans" by Bush's detractors when W. was in office. Strangely, I think they'll warm to it now, even though, from the beginning, the government could only listen to calls that could have a potential terror link, and even then they could only listen for 10 minutes at a time if there was no indication of any terror-related conversations. They weren't listening in illegally to all American-Muslims, and they certainly listening to the average Susie Homemaker or Larry Lunchpail talk about recipes and football.

It's funny how getting a look at those security reports could change a pacifists mind.
