Just hearing on the news that USA Today has broken a huge story about the fact that the NSA has been collecting lists of records of phone calls on millions of Americans. And now Bush is on television and using 9/11 again as an excuse for usurping civil liberties.
I cannot believe how much this government has abused the freedoms of Americans. As an outsider looking on I am amazed at how much freedom Americans have given up because the government has instilled fear in them. I want to weep when I see America losing the very freedoms it fought so hard to obtain. There was a day when I and many, many others saw America as the most liberated and free country in the world. Today I would say that America has lost so much of its freedom that it more resembles the way the USSR operated before its collapse.
When are our American friends going to wake up and recognize how much they have lost? When are they going to start to take back their precious freedom? It breaks my heart to see this happening.
