Quoting Franklin as if he'd oppose reasonable surveillance seems incorrect to me.
Suggesting Franklin would have approved of AT&T shoveling the entire data streams of multiple carriers directly to the government without functional judicial oversight and with full legal immunity from prosecution for privacy invasion seems incorrect to me. Reasonable, my ass. Using Franklin for *any* purpose is absurd. Just 6 years prior to the Revolution Franklin was praising King George as the best King the world had ever had, criticizing British citizens who were upset over the imprisonment of Wilkes by the King, after Wilkes won two elections while in prison.
It hurts so much, doesn't it Karl?

At least I do it without quoting founders incorrectly. Which takes us back to the original topic of who's frantic, imbalanced, most likely to falsify a poll as "the ends justify the means." Eh?

Mark I think this conversation has lost all logic and goes around in a circle.
Maybe its time to get off the ride awhile and take a breather?
After all what happened with immunity has already been decided on.
This is news whether we support the decision or not.
This post not being directed at you Personally Mark but to this thread in general.
