I never have gotten a real good fix on this. My understanding is that
taps were on overseas telephones. Since there is no law or
constitutional concern about what is done outside the US, this is a
non-issue. According to a long line of court decisions, as long as a tap

phone is in the US) is fair game.

about that? But now you're incensed that the Dems passed a law requiring

Not hardly. You only need car insurance if you want a car. You have
to buy health insurance if you want to live in the US. BIG difference.

you're echoing Sharon Angle/Tea Party claptrap that if the ballots don't
work, then maybe it's time for bullets. This cracks me up, democracy works
only if your side wins, otherwise sedition suddenly becomes a virtue, three
cheers for Tim McVeigh. What hogwash.
WHich of course is not even remotely what they actually said.
