[Vision2020] KTVB and the NSA

[Paul Rumelhart]

What if you had stumbled upon proof that your government was doing
something completely unconstitutional and that the corruption went all the
way up your chain of command?  What would your duty have been, then?

"I, personally, feel quite comfortable and secure in the current
environment here in the Nifty Fifty (USA)."
I can't wait to throw that quote back in your face when we have a sitting
President you don't like and the government starts pressuring a group you
*do* care about.
