True but they didn't have to declare conservative organizations to be terrorists in order to sic the IRS on them either. There are a lot more things the Government can do to screw it's enemies besides dropping a bomb on them.

The thing is they are secretly collecting enormous amounts of personal information, ostensibly to combat terrorists, but how can we know what this information is actually used for if the very existence of the program is kept from us?

Where is the oversight that so vital in preventing the abuse commonly found in government operations that we do know of?
