All partisan ship aside, it makes me ill to think of stories being released detailing (NSA???() taped conversations of our Congress people

Who authorized this ????????

Unless they are talking to overseas terrorists!!!!

Isn’t that what the patriot act was supposed to be confined to???? What the Sam Hill is going on in this country?

Maybe this will wake up some of the so-called liberal intelligentsia who never realized what a hard left radical regime is capable of

I don't believe that is a black-and-white issue. If a foreigner living in the US is a known contact of terrorists or anti-Americans overseas, their phone calls can/should also be tapped. And if a sitting congressman is in contact with said foreigner...oops.

She was (supposedly) talking to an Israeli agent who was outside the United States. Whether or not he was a terrorist, he was trying to get more lenient treatment for a convicted Israeli agent. It does say which agent, but Jonathan Pollard sold the Israelis very sensitive information about U.S. strategic nuclear defenses, which the Israelis traded to the Soviets for the release of Soviet Jews to immigrate to Israel. I am about as pro-Israeli as any gentile, but I find this to be a despicable betrayal by an ally we have stood by when the easy thing to do would have been to embrace her enemies who sit on most of the world's petroleum reserves.

Did you miss the part where her conversation was with a suspected Israeli agent?
