THAT is ringing all the way back to Watchington D.C. !!!
NDAA 2014 builds on the powers granted by both the Patriot Act and FISA by allowing unrestricted analysis and research of captured records pertaining to any organization or individual “now or once hostile to the United States”.
If this were Bush, people would be all over him about that. But since it's Obama, I guess we're just supposed to give him the benefit of the doubt.
The president tells Leno, "The odds of dying in a terrorist attack are a lot lower than they are of dying in a car accident, unfortunately."
– You are 17,600 times more likely to die from heart disease than from a terrorist attack
– You are 12,571 times more likely to die from cancer than from a terrorist attack
- You are 11,000 times more likely to die in an airplane accident than from a terrorist plot involving an airplane
— You are 1048 times more likely to die from a car accident than from a terrorist attack
–You are 404 times more likely to die in a fall than from a terrorist attack
— You are 87 times more likely to drown than die in a terrorist attack

Wonder if he is talking about Hastings there ?
POTUS said government surveillance is a "critical component to counterterrorism." But, he said, he knows that the surveillance programs have "raised a lot of questions for people."
"We don’t have a domestic spying program. What we do have is some mechanisms that can track a phone number or an email address that is connected to a terroritst attack...That information is useful."
Don't listen to those voices that warn you about government tyranny
So I am more likey to die in a car accident(Michael Hastings) than I am a terrorist attack eh?
So why close all those embassies, and travel alerts?
We don't have a 'domestic spying program' ? ? ?
We don't ? ?
There is your POTUS Americans taking us all for fools.
Yes We Can lie all they want no worries they won't be held accountable for it.
