Yesterday, I left this comment over on the Vulgar Curmudgeon, in response to his post about the NSA lobbying the House for votes on their SuperSpyonUS program.
"I don't believe that anyone in the government has any real interest in stopping this shit. I can't belive that anyone actually has the balls to say "if you aint done nothing wrong, you got nothing to hide". Their logic is ass-backward. It is because I have done nothing wrong that the government has no right to be spying on me!"
Well, here it is, voted down 205 to 217. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/attempt-to-curb-nsa-surveillance-defeated-in-house-2013-07-25?siteid=yhoof2
Notice the vote against by the illustrious Speaker.
