Even the New York Times thinks she is a joke.
The defense of this practice offered by Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, who as chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee is supposed to be preventing this sort of overreaching, was absurd.
And Nobel Peace Prize winner Obama too!
The administration has now lost all credibility on this issue. Mr. Obama is proving the truism that the executive branch will use any power it is given and very likely abuse it. That is one reason we have long argued that the Patriot Act, enacted in the heat of fear after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks by members of Congress who mostly had not even read it, was reckless in its assignment of unnecessary and overbroad surveillance powers.

Feinstein. What a numbskull, right up there with Lindsey Graham, Harry Reid and the other out of touch old farts of the senate.
The New York Slimes. The paper of Treason. Amazing level of hypocrisy too …
Unfortunately they do not understand that all three branches of the Federal government are using power NOT given it. They are using powers they have assumed through baby step precedents. And all the while the New York Slimes cheered them on.
Astounding hypocrisy! Where were they were members were busy NOT reading Obamacare and then passing it in the dead of night ( ‘they have to pass it to know what’s in it!’ ). The NYT building should be give 2 minutes evacuation notice, then flattened by Tomahawks, then the ground salted so nothing may ever grow there in the future!
Et tu, Gray Lady? Ouch, bet that hurt.
