lol another exaample of the executive over-stepping it's bounds. remember when dems complained about bush? yet they probably will support their leader for similar actions.

Depends on the composition of the Supreme Court at the time of the suit...

Yes it is.

I definitely think that I should have a reasonable expectation that the government doesn't need to know where I am every second of the day.

Anybody with a few bucks can buy simple monitors that readily pick up cell phone calls. I don't know anyone who considers cell phones "secure" in a privacy sense to start with.

No, I don't agree my cell phone company should reveal my records without my permission.

I am with Miraja on this. I totally disagreed with Bush and Obama on this one. And I agree...Obama should get ripped for this like Bush did.

I agree. Part of the problem we grapple with when defending the individual liberties is what things can turn into, later, also. Even when Bush was proposing things in the Patriot Act to stop the terrorists -- the issue becomes, even if you believe that the proposed changes were made for just that reason -- what will some future leader do with those powers? Unfortunately, laws are manipulated in ways never intended by the original authors. Those authors may have had pure motives, but generations later, those powers that were used in a targeted way and sparingly can be used indiscriminately and in a sweeping manner.

Reasonable people can disagree on partisan issues, but I think most of us agree that individual rights are indispensible and that the government has too much power already.

You are apparently completely unawares that "monitor" doesn't only mean a CRT or computer screen.

LMAO. Poor Dell ....

It's called a scanner and the scanner is used to monitor phone conversations.

Congrats tho as you now seem even more clueless than your original post. But then again I forget you, like Al Gore know everything.

If you want to use any excuse to insult somebody and call them names, at least don't be both ignorant and stupid about the subject matter.
