In reply to the discussion: Jerrold Nadler Does Not Think the NSA Can Listen to U.S. Phone Calls [View all]Number23
(24,544 posts)9. I just came out of the other threads on this topic. There should be a warning for that kind of stuf
People sitting around LITERALLY arguing with nobody. Screaming names at people who aren't even there. It's astounding. The name-calling is through the roof all while breaking their own arms patting themselves on the back. There are more posts about DUers who "disagree" with them than there are posts supporting the OP although judging by the err.... "loving" they're showing to one another, I can't see more than one person who disagrees with the OP who has even posted in the threads.
I'm starting to wish that DU would drop the whole subject altogether. For those of us interested in this issue but not interested in bullshit, this is not a good place to discuss this topic.

I too am glad the government claims that it still adheres to the constitution.

Exactly. It's good (albeit sad) to think of the world as a bunch of used-car salesmen.

Was that before or after Nadler said NSA can listen to our telephone calls?
