Without commenting on the "eavesdropping" program itself-If I did not see any mortal threat to our way of life for the future, I would agree with you!
I think it is because we do not perceive the same menace to our very existence, that we will not agree on this issue.
I have always found it interesting that the left gets so up in arms about any effort by the government to protect our physical selves from harm. I think that physical protection of my person and my property is damn near the only legitimate function of government. So it is astounding to me that the left trusts the government to the point that they want them in charge of everything from health care to determining my wages to micromanaging my car engine, but these same people completely distrust the government when it comes to them doing the ONE THING that they are actually supposed to be doing (stopping other people from beating me up and taking my stuff.) So when the dirty bombs start going off and thousands are dying of radiation, at least they will have free health care? Go figure.
