CNN FLOODED WITH EMAIL: ALL CRITICAL OF THE GOVERNMENT DU THIS!
Let it rain, let it pour!
DU this link to close the door
on immigration I will take no stand
go ahead and bitch
after all, it's only your land

On NSA spying for profit or fun
go ahead and load your gun
Big brother lurks at the door
As senators lie down like a whore

sorry about the pathetic poem but go ahead and clog their servers. This is the first time I've ever heard them say what they just did about the number of emails.

2. Wow. 23% don't like the Bill of Rights.
Will that be Georgie's next approval rating, too?

8. that IS his approval rating or close to it
Keep in mind CNN is freeped up worse than even DU. Every troll that ever lurked is emailing their polls, which throws them off at least 3 or 4 points.

He's lost at least 5% on this.....he'll crater at 20%

12. Yeah,

13. LOL! Can think of it sort of similar to a manufacturing process....
... like a factory making lightbulbs, for example. You can get all the best equipment and employees you want, but you'll always have a non-zero defect rate... That's just the way it goes - all you can do is do your best to *minimize* the defects...

3. I felt this same way in 69 when I heard BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING
He's only knocking at the door after watching all these years. I'm glad he's finally gotten over voyeurism.

5. here's mine...
I woke up this morning to find out that the government has created 'the largest database in the world' filled with the call records of millions of ordinary American citizens. It doesn't take a Constitutional scholar to tell you that's a direct violation of the 4th amendment.

As a child I was raised to believe that this type of thing only happened in Soviet Russia or Red China... why is this behavior being tolerated here in the US?

This is clearly unconstitutional, and those suspected of violating the amendment should have to answer to a Grand Jury.

7. that was therapeutic...
I can not tell you how appalled I am at your recent conversion to reality. How dare you get your panties in a bunch over this NSA crap. If I had a nickel for every time this administration and it's talking-heads lied, I'd be sitting pretty. You people are way late to the party. Those of us who bother to read could make your head spin. Stolen elections, anyone?

15. Put ink on our FINGERS...won't say which one
I am wondering why the outrage of this is not shouted about in the Nation's Capital, by our Representatives. They each took an oath. This is a clear violation of the Constitution.

28. My feedback
I am positive that the Bush regime and the NSA are violation the law. They ADMIT IT. in CASE THERE IS ANY DOUBT READ THE FOLLOWING:
4th Amendment
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated; and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be seized.

30. 23% of Americans think it would be ok for Bush to rape children
apparently, 23% of Americans would agree to anything Bush is doing. They would support him no matter what.

How does the report that the NSA is building a database of Americans' phone calls make you feel?
