If you'd like to discuss wiretapping and increased survelliance, I'll do that... will that make you happy?

Fact: Terrorists struck America
Fact: Terrorists used American flight schools and American communications to coordinate attacks
Fact: The majority of Americans think the attacks could have been prevented- but don't suggest ways it could have been prevented- can you? And if you tell me increased airport security I'm gonna laugh in your face at your hypocrisy.
Fact: Had the feds been listening in on the terrorists phone calls to Afghanistan, it could have been prevented
Fact: The terrorists still want to destroy as many of us as possible
Fact: By listening in on calls, we increase our ability to thwart attacks
Fact: Unless you are a terrorist, you have nothing to worry about anyway
Fact: The Constitution allows for expansion of federal powers in three separate places-
look it up if you don't believe me... or I'll do it for you later if you need your hand held through intelligent discussion.
Fact: The US hasn't been attacked since 9/11- must be doing something right

What about this doesn't make sense to you...?

While I agree with most of your stated facts there are two that really burns my ass. Saying we havent been attack so we must be doing something right is out right stupid. How many other times have we being attacked? Because really, I think 9/11 was the first attack on us soil since Pearl Harbor. No, I dont think bush is doing anything right. But then again I didnt vote so by no means am I saying that it shouldnt be him in office. The other is the privacy thing about having no problem about listening to my phone calls. If, we allow this what while they go to next? Implanting cameras in homes of suspected terrorist with out them knowing?While, it makes some feel safe it pisses more people off. I dont want some douche sitting behind a desk while I have phone sex and describe fantasies about raping cows.
