Libertarians who wish to defund organizations like the NSA

[gjohnson5]

Why is it so crazy to want to remove the funding for organization who admit to wholesale destruction of civil liberties

Sounds good to me

Along with a flat tax and dismantling of IRS

In this case there probably should be a criminal investigation because I believe the NSA HAS LIED TO CONGRESS multiple times on this issue. I believe they have said (and the President as well) that no wiretapping has ever been done. Now they admit to unmoderated domestic spying

I find it interesting that during a conservative administration, they can do no wrong by their constituents. Proverbial head in the sand "meesa see noothhhiin". But in a liberal administration that looks to be mired in some unethical BS, liberals are hopping mad. There's a certain principaled and moral consistency to this no?

OOh , my Obama avatar is coming down ASAP. He looks to be the single most hypocritical man in America. He bashed Bush for his spying and Patriot Act acts , but has said publically that there was no spying on people's phone calls or emails during his Administration

Total Lies

Because you have what's called "principal". It goes something like this...if it's wrong it's wrong, even if your guy is POTUS. It's so galling that any conservatives are angry in the "slightest" about this NSA stuff because liberals were screaming this was going to happen as Bush was laying the groundwork. Case in point Cheney comes out the other day defending the NSA. He has to, his fingerprints are all over this.
