Leftist Hysteria Strikes Again

Paranoia, the Destroyer

About halfway into the "Best of the Web" column, we get to the item on these loons who think the government has nothing better to do than worry about what they're typing into their computers.

How narcissistic do you have to be to think you're important enough for the national security establishment to watch over what you may or may not be saying in your e-mails? Yes, I know the government does do that; however, they only pay attention to those persons they have reason to believe are actual threats. Even if you were flagged for some reason, if you're not actually doing anything wrong, no one is going to "haul you away."

Liberal apologists for terrorists seem to have forgotten that the only people who have been "hauled away" actually ARE threats to our way of life and the electronic surveillance is not really much more intrusive, in reality, than what digging to find what your average direct mail database probably already has on file about you anyway.

When the government starts making midnight raids and people start disappearing, then we can start worrying. Until then, this is all just hysterical nonsense from people in severe need of some anxiety medication...
