Thanks for your email.
Like you, I think NSA surveillance is over the top.
However, I also think "security" officials must be drowning in all that data.
Perhaps I underestimate the ability of algorithms to make sense of "noise."
What I know for fact is that during the run-up to 9/11 Dubyah ignored a hand-delivered brief entitled "Bin Laden Determined To Strike In United States." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bin_Ladin_Determined_To_Strike_in_US
We now have the 2.0 upgrade of "Shit in, shit out."
"More shit in, more shit out."
To paraphrase Marie Antoinette: "Let them eat shit."

PS Do you remember Arthur's old joke?
"What's the difference between Bush and a real cowboy?"
"With real cowboys the shit's on the outside of the boots."
