Part of me thinks it's punishment enough that someone in the NSA has to monitor my boring-ass phone calls.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The fact that it's getting a lot of ink now, just when Bush is trying to get the former head of NSA put in charge of the CIA, strikes me as some inter-agency warfare via the press as much as anything.
Still trying to wrap my head around the CIA as one of the last bastions of defending our freedoms, no matter why they're doing it.
(And to be perfectly serious, I think inter-agency rivalries are actually a pretty effective protection. Call it second-tier checks and balances.)

Yeah. I've mentioned this before, but in college I protested CIA recruitment on campus. Now I feel sorry for them.
Bush is trying to destroy the CIA, or at least neuter it, because they refused to tell him exactly what he wanted to hear....
