The gubmint is free to listen to your phone calls and read your emails...since these were not around at the time the 4th Amendment was incorporated, right?
Apparently that’s how The Regime reads it:
Justice Department Expands Hunt for Data on Cellphones
http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/11/26/justice-department-expands-hunt-for-data-on-cellphones/
Obama’s NSA eavesdropping goes beyond that of Bush... after campaigning on the promise of: “ No warrantless wiretaps if you elect me!”
http://news.cnet.com/8301-10784_3-9845595-7.html
headlines read:” NSA Exceeds Legal Limits In Eavesdropping Program” , “ U.S. phone intercepts go beyond legal limits” , and “NSA Found Improperly Spying on Americans”.

On ABC This Week, Greta made great points about FISA and this was tweeted:
letter @gretawire just referenced #ThisWeek - showing the 1,789-0 govt record at FISA court http://t.co/qdZLgcvFE9 vis @propublica
Greta’s point was that the court is presented with ONLY the gov’t side of the discussion. No one opposes the request or makes a case for why records do not need to be accessed.
Only 1 request was denied out of all the requests.
