. . . How do You feel regarding this Petition ??? That it is founded on an incorrect assumption. First of all, the name is deliberately misleading. The program is a targeted foreign national surveillance program. The people who are monitored are those who have contact with known enemies of the United States. We are at war. People here who contact our enemies are of vital interest and knowledge of what they say to the enemy saves lives both here and abroad. |

Didn't Richard Nixon have an enemies list (can't remember any foreigners on it, not even Chairman Mao)? Account frozen... |

I am FOR any surveilance program that will keep a watchful eye on anyone in this country that has terrorist tendencies deep in their psychy. If it looks like a duck,waddles like a duck,swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck! B-IV |

If it looks like a duck,waddles like a duck,swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck! B-IV I agree, but can't figure how to do that. I think we have all had the fleeting thought of killing someone at some points in our lives for something that happened. The difference is that most of us IMMEDIATELY put that thought out of our heads and move on with our lives. Terrorists let that though fester and grow until something happens. How do we find those people that let that thought fester and grow? I am not sure there is a fail-safe way to do that. If we agree on that, then we must also assume that some people are going to be spyed upon that are not terrorists. Some people have had the thought and moved on but somehow our 'profile' didn't kick them out and we spy on them thinking they are letting the thought fester and grow, when in fact it is not. I do not like that idea, but do not know how to prevent it. I AM for spying on everyone fitting the 'profile', I just would like the 'profile' narrowed down so innocent people are not included. If it is narrowed that far, how many terrorists get missed? Is this another program that will be found out later to be mismanaged and run amok by Politicians with an agenda? |

We are at war. Only because less than half of your population choose to be. You are yet to identify whom you are at war with. You have no strategies in place to deal with this war. You have no plans as to what to do when you confront your enemy. You are running around in Iraq like headless chooks, kicking the cat because you can't find the dog. You have NOT yet worked out that Iraq is not where it's at. You have no direction in any of this ......... And yet your Government trumpets that you are "winning the war" - refer point 2 above. Yea! OK ... tell me another. (another Korea, another Viet Nam ... etc etc ... OK guys , I agree, you are winning the war!!!) |

Question: If you are referring to former President Clinton you are sadly mistaken in your assessment of his presidency. The US economy was in the midst of a serious recession when he left office, you may want to investigate events the Baltic and Slavic areas in Eastern Europe before you claim no wars and the US population was more polarized that at any time in the last century. |
