Justine Bieber is breaking news, what a bunch of hacks.
What's funnier is the fact Bucky and Dog Here are so butt hurt that everyone's mocking MSNBC.

That whole NSA thing is way too hard for 80% of the population to understand, especially when compared to the Bieb, a Lamborghini, and some alcohol induced fun times.
It's YOUR fault people. Stop being so easily distracted and fooled.

I love how he has an uber high profile attorney handeling an arraignment. That kind of legal firepower probably charged $20k just to do that 30 minutes of work. You don't even need an attorney to say "not guilty." I guess when you got that kind of money though, you think different about such things.

I also had to LOL at giving Beiber a $2500 bond.

it's actually pretty easy to understand. massive surveillance programs that have been going on for decades have been made very easy and more encompassing by technology.

the FBI has had files on all sorts of harmless people for way longer than anyone ever thought, now my phone records may be sitting in a government warehouse somewhere if they're not in the phone company's database. such a huge difference. massive scandal.

this type of thing appeals to the naive, the conspiratorial, and the forever persecuted types.

the rest of us just yawn and don't really care.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to pigeonhole you into that 80%, you did that yourself right here.
I can't imagine other countries want to do much business with us, I wonder if they will start to move away from the dollar and into something else, leaving us but a shell of our former glory days. I wonder if Merkel even uses her iPhone anymore. I'm sure that would never happen, naww.

You don't care because you know you pose no threat to anyone, you would be the first person to let the soldiers stay at your house.

going on for decades? citation required.

it is inarguable that surveillance programs have been going on for decades, the only thing you could question is my qualifier: "massive".

how large in scale do you think surveillance programs have been over the last 30-40 years (and beyond)?

i'd argue that they've been bigger than most would expect.

When the Patriot Act was being debated right after 9/11 I was telling my dad how bad it could be and the potential for abuse. He said "I'm not worried, I'm not a terrorist"

Unfortunatly that is the way the majority of Americans feel. Our senator at the time was one of the few that voted against it
