Thanks echos . . . if one person is exempt from consitutional protections than all people are exempt from them. What if someone less honorable and rational than, say, lentiman (chuckle chuckle) were in a position to decide who should be investigated? It would be like living under Saddam and his sons, and good Americans, like their German counterparts, would welcome it if it were justified under "homeland security."

I just finished reading Philip Roth's most recent book, "The Plot Against America," a brilliant piece of fantastical history where it's illustrated how easily the US might have slipped to the Axis'side in WWII, and then Lentinman just steps right up and proves it could have been so. As His Majesty Gee Whiz Bush points out, it's a dangerous world out there, but not all the evil men speak with foreign accents. Some have apple pie crumbs on their lips.
