I guess you have never read the constitution or the federalist papers then....

"Since 9/11, there has been, at first secretly but increasingly openly, a revocation of the bill of rights for which this country fought over 200 years ago. In particular, the fourth and fifth amendments of the US constitution, which safeguard citizens from unwarranted intrusion by the government into their private lives, have been virtually suspended.
The government claims it has a court warrant under Fisa ? but that unconstitutionally sweeping warrant is from a secret court, shielded from effective oversight, almost totally deferential to executive requests. As Russell Tice, a former National Security Agency analyst, put it: ?It is a kangaroo court with a rubber stamp.?

With the powers that they have given themselves to spy on their own citizens, the government now has the ability to blackmail political opponents, find and stop anyone that may expose government abuses, and muzzle investigative journalists. The fact that there are so many people like you that think that this is no big deal, is a sad commentary on how sheeplike people have become.
