#4 This is as big of a loser as was Dan Rather's attempt to rally the lefty masses behind the National Guard "scandal".

The usual suspects think they can exite the bases over this because they live in an echo chamber. They couldn't float Air America in a single city without stealing from orphans and widows, so that tells you the actual numbers of moonbats flying around out there. Yet if you read the reports in the media the prevailing wisdom is that the NSA spying is bad, bad, very bad and we all very concerned. Of course, Fox hypes it as "Do American's think the NSA spying bad?"

But the bottom line is that no matter how hard the media hypes it, whines, spins, and masturbates on the subject, Americans don't care if the NSA spys on Americans supsected of speaking with terrorists. Period. No amount of hyping this and trying to get polls to prove Americans are "concerned" is going to change the fact that the Dems are riding a dead horse that can't make it to the next election.

Most of us are just ticked that they are allowing the terrorists to get information on the program and we are going to be even more ticked if the terrorists manage to pull off an attack.

#6 Is Rockerfeller squirming? Pretty easy to track leaks when information is shared with only eight. How about leaking some classic disinformation and seeing how long it takes before the leak shows up in the NYT?

#7 Snarling Arlan is grasping at straws if he thinks he can pass a law to restrict executive powers that he disagrees with politically. The SCOTUS will strike down the law while they are still debating.
