"One Bomb Away"

I read this a couple of days ago, but I keep seeing people say that this administration has kept us safe since 9/11, so they must be OK. That's not really what they've been worried about - they have actually been more worried about taking away more of your freedoms. A quote:

"Dick Cheney Chief of Staff David Addington had an idea for getting around all of that. As Jack Goldsmith, the former head of the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel, tells the New York Times, Addington once observed that the White House was just "one bomb away from getting rid of that obnoxious [FISA] court."

Read it here. But hey, if you don't care about freedom....
