Being Safe / Not Being Abused


For John, BLUFDo you trust the Federal Government to not abuse its power too much?  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Over at USA Today Law Professor (and Blogger—InstaPundit) Glenn Reynolds gives us his view that "The common thread running through his [President Obama's] scandals is an abuse of power."

Key paragraph

The justification for giving the government a lot of snooping power hangs on two key arguments:  That snooping will make us safer and that the snooping power won't be abused.
Is this just "The Chicago Way" playing out at the National level?

I hope not.

  1. I lost phone/ internet a week ago, the landline restored today.

    My husband was remotely working from home to his office computer for a few days with web conferences to China.

    Verizon couldn't tell us the problem.

    Who knows...

    You can help but wonder it was flagged, and our number needed time to be cleared.
