Our "intelligence" agency spends billions of dollars and we get the equivilant of sociopathic keystone cops for our money. This agency is a government run amock within our government.

none of this is new or worth the irritation. they listen and here nothing, they look but cannot see, they coup and then we get a anti-American elected,they still as they did in the late 70s run black bag ops all over the world. and tell us they know nothing. as stated so what else is new. until you find yourself in a black bag opp and don't exsist for 4-15 months, then you do, but don't hurt yourself, as they had NOBODY there!
nobody

I'm surprised to see so many people supporting Democrats for these things. The Democrats have been disappointing since they have been in power. They haven't done enough to try and stop these activities. They endorsed further wiretapping and passed the bill. What really makes you think they are going to start pushing the other way once they get elected? I say look at their actual voting record and what issues they actually fought for while in congress instead of listening to them speak about what they will do when they are elected. I won't fall for the same trick again. Both the Democrats and the Republicans have sold the American people out for a buck. All the front runners on both sides are receiving support from the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations). They are easy to look up and read about, our front running endorse their policies including "relieving the United States of it's Sovereignty" through the delivery of the NAU (North American Union). It???s not imaginary and if you look just a little all of the information is there to confirm it.

Both sides have lost my vote, I'm voting for change this time. Ron Paul is the only candidate who will make the serious changes needed and isn't beholden to ANY special interest groups. He fights for our rights and freedom. Even if you don't agree with all his views most do agree he is honest, principled, and you know exactly what he will do in office not just what he "says' he will do. I'm going to put my vote where it counts for freedom and the American way.

Best,

I am applauding the fact that I voted for people who actually believe in justice, liberty, and equal protection under our laws. Democrats don't just pay these rights lip service to get elected. I suppose those who agree with observer101 would prefer a CIA with the power to search homes without a warrant, tap phones without a warrant, be held in jail for years without a charge or access to an attorney; oh thats right freedom loving republicans have given us this bastion legal protection that our founding fathers and roughly 12 generations of politicians thought important enough to protect live and die for. Not to mention yhe soldiers who did 99% of the dying, but republicans love soldiers till they have to be one then a hangnail gets out of service ( no disrespect to John Mcain he is a great man even if I don't agree with all of his policies). It seems republicans should do as they told liberals for years to do; go and live under totalitarian regimes then perhaps you will appreciate and value what we, liberals, are trying to mantain here in America.

  God knows the Clinton Admin played by the rules with the Serbia incident in the 1990's. I guess the CIA didnt exist then know did it? Despite what you think Payne, Democrat or Republican we are watched with or without permission. Thats just the way it is. Imformation wins wars or starts them. So foolishly thinking that a Dem president or any president isnt going to get info anyway he can is just plain stupid.

Goes to show the Dems accomplish nothing..All they want to do is waste our time and money in congress and where ever they are elected into office. All who elected them should pat yourselves on the back. Cant wait to see what a Dem president will do for us. Osama will give up, peace will follow in the mid east then, all will be well. And ofcourse what enemies of the U.S are left will gladly give up information if a democrat nicley asks for it.
