Re: The NSA spying on innocent American citizens

He didn't instigate this program. It's been ongoing since Bush. So no, he did not go behind your back and create this program. He just kept it going.

I believe there have been lawsuits going ever since the "Patriot Act" was put into effect. Good luck with those going anywhere. :/

Honestly, even though I disagree with a lot that Obama has done I agree with a lot he's done too and I really think Romney would have done a lot worse. You can bet that he'd definitely be keeping all this NSA spying business going if not adding and expanding it.

You do realize he expanded what Bush put into place and just used the Patriot Act as a reason for why he could do it, right?

Yup.

The fact that Bush started the program is hardly a defense of Obama. He's largely maintained or expanded Bush-era policies on stuff like this. If you don't like Bush on civil liberties, you have to be critical of Obama as well. I really don't get how he's somehow blameless just because he didn't originate the policies. Nor does the fact that Romney would have done the same absolve him of responsibility at all - the fact that we had two shitty choices with regards to civil liberties doesn't somehow make one of those choices not shitty.
