Word. It's sad that any of our archaic, out-of-touch politicians don't understand that the Fourth Amendment was totally thrown out the window by several government branches. The internet is the most powerful piece of technology EVER, and our policy makers can't grasp that. Perhaps the alternative is worse; that they do actually understand the gravity of NSA activities, and are such corrupt little puppets that they're a lost cause. Either way... unconstitutional mutherfukers.
It isn't just the 4th - their own authority to oversee elections granted to Congress - Article 1 section 4[1] - and I presume elsewhere as well - there is an attorney from Burlington who makes the argument that the Supreme Court overstepped it's authority with Citizens United. It is curious that Congress itself has not made that argument and simply told the court to step off.
