And yet every relevant Federal Appeals court decision disagrees with them. nt stevenleser Jun 2013 #2

So you are saying that which the courts uphold is always good and correct? Bluenorthwest Jun 2013 #3

Nope, my short statement is exactly what it is. Not enough room there for your straw man. nt stevenleser Jun 2013 #9

which appeals judge said the programs were constitutional? adric mutelovic Jun 2013 #10

Start with 1984 US v Duggan stevenleser Jun 2013 #12

so foreign, not everyone and their mom? adric mutelovic Jun 2013 #15

Did you read it and the other cases and situations it cites? Or did you decide it was irrelevant out stevenleser Jun 2013 #16

Are you defending the spying or just Pres Obama? nm rhett o rick Jun 2013 #90

We are all foreigners now... zeemike Jun 2013 #55

Key word being FOREIGN. And that ruling was 30 years ago. nm rhett o rick Jun 2013 #89

which cases are those? adric mutelovic Jun 2013 #5

Start with 1984 US v Duggan stevenleser Jun 2013 #11

Id rather start with a ruling justifying collecting everyone's metadata adric mutelovic Jun 2013 #17

Duggan does that and more and provides more cases that back it up. All you have to do is read. stevenleser Jun 2013 #22

No. Duggan doesn't do that adric mutelovic Jun 2013 #39

It absolutely lays out the power of the President and executive branch with regards to foreign stevenleser Jun 2013 #45

Duggan concerned the admissibility of evidence in a court in a case JDPriestly Jun 2013 #58

Yep yep. These are not necessarily good laws, but the court rulings say it's okay. BenzoDia Jun 2013 #6

The caselaw doesnt care that you dispute its existence. nt stevenleser Jun 2013 #20

But any reader that takes your word when you can not cite this 'plethora' of examples Bluenorthwest Jun 2013 #28

I have always happily provided the cases for people to check. How many would you like? stevenleser Jun 2013 #33

There's just one problem with that Hydra Jun 2013 #8

You mean one out of several thousand requests right? Have you compared that to the average stevenleser Jun 2013 #36

Huh? Hydra Jun 2013 #42

Which you could say about anything. That is not an argument. nt stevenleser Jun 2013 #14

Exactly. It's a meaningful as yours. progressoid Jun 2013 #19

No, it's not. There is a plethora of caselaw behind my opinion. nt stevenleser Jun 2013 #21

But you are assuming that your "plethora" is right. progressoid Jun 2013 #23

Again, you can say that about anything. That is not an argument. nt stevenleser Jun 2013 #25

I see your hyperbolic claims got wide mockery from the DU community as they should have Bluenorthwest Jun 2013 #27

You would like to think so wouldn't you? No one has been able to dispute a single contention. stevenleser Jun 2013 #32

jeez do you not understand? arely staircase Jun 2013 #64

Nor is saying that legal precedent is a valid defense. progressoid Jun 2013 #37

You should reread your title a few more times and see if it still makes sense to you. stevenleser Jun 2013 #38

Which title? progressoid Jun 2013 #41

This post has nothing to do with what's being talked about here, I just want to say I love your a kennedy Jun 2013 #71

Please provide evidence. nm rhett o rick Jun 2013 #88

The warrant revealed by the Guardian clearly violates both the Constitution and also rhett o rick Jun 2013 #91

Ever since Kennedy, no President has even questioned the Military Industrial Complex Taverner Jun 2013 #4

You're seriously suggesting Kennedy was assassinated by the U.S. military?!? ConservativeDemocrat Jun 2013 #61

I am not. I am saying they tried to take credit for it. Taverner Jun 2013 #66

So who do you theorize assassinated Pres Kennedy after all the evidence out there today? nm rhett o rick Jun 2013 #92

Well, that durn 4th Amerndment is soooo tricky..and inconvenient. Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #24

I find the quoting of bare amendments to be a facile tactic. For example, if I posted: msanthrope Jun 2013 #30

Soo...what part of the 4th do you disagree with/agree with? Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #34

Again.... a better question would encompass some of the 200 years of msanthrope Jun 2013 #46

Do you agree with "200 years of jurisprudence" that gives the goverment the right to spy on its own Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #47

You aren't being specific enough for me to comment on. Be specific. Who, what, where? nt msanthrope Jun 2013 #48

How specific do I have to be? Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #49

Define 'spying.' nt msanthrope Jun 2013 #51

Here Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #52

Define 'spying.' Not 'spy.'. Define the activities you think are 'spying.' nt msanthrope Jun 2013 #54

You're kidding. Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #57

No, I'm not. Define what you think is 'spying.' A specific action. nt msanthrope Jun 2013 #59

How about peeking through someone's window without their knowledge? Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #63

LEO's on lawful business can look through your windows. What they can do with what they see depends msanthrope Jun 2013 #65

You really aren't going to answer the question, are you? Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #67

When you ask me a question with some specificity, I answer it. I just did. nt msanthrope Jun 2013 #68

Do you approve of the government spying on you? Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #69

I have no evidence to think the government is doing anything impermissible to me. msanthrope Jun 2013 #72

Or, to anyone else? Tierra_y_Libertad Jun 2013 #73

To whom? Again, if you've got specifics, let us know. nt msanthrope Jun 2013 #74

I would have to be OK with it if it were allowed under the law treestar Jun 2013 #83

And apparently, that is the meaning of the law to you treestar Jun 2013 #82

I've decided that the perfect reply to that is the 2nd, or the 3rd amendment. nt msanthrope Jun 2013 #81
