In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders.

PRISM tells us a story about the police.

Nobody has told a story about the prosecutors.

Now even Andrew Sullivan has come out against the surveillance state.

Its too bad it had to be personal to get it through his head.

Indeed.

Remember when Nixon was running for President the first time,
he used a campaign slogan "Bring Us Together",
and he did just that with Watergate ... everyone ended up hating him.

Unfortunately for Obama, I think PRISM is doing that too.
I have been very disappointed in Obama's public stance in defending it.

So ironically, maybe less polarization will be the result here also.

Heh. Yeah. I voted for Obama twice, and son, I am dissapoint.

But I still think he's much better than Romney would have been and probably also McCain. Not sure about McCain. McCain might have been ok.

I think Christie will be our next president. I wonder what he'll be like?

You don't think they'd let Christie reproduce?!
