TDS: NSA Hearing

I think this clip from The Daily Show does a pretty good job of summing up the Senate hearing on domestic spying last Monday.

Too bad they did not include this pearl of wisdom from Attorney General Gonzales:
President Washington, President Lincoln, President Wilson, President Roosevelt have all authorized electronic surveillance on a far broader scale.

Just think. If Washington hadn't gotten ahold of the contact list from General Cornwallis' Blackberry, we might still be under British rule today.
