At yesterday's Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on FISA legislation, Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) asked NSA director, Gen. Keith Alexander, whether his spy agency should be collecting all Americans' phone records. Gen. Alexander, in a shockingly forthcoming response, admitted that he "believe[s] it is in the nation's best interest to put all the phone records into a lockbox that we can search when the nation needs it." He also explained that "there is no upper limit" to the number of Americans' phone records that the NSA can collect.
This admission is particularly unnerving in light of the last few months' revelations of the NSA's dragnet surveillance of Americans' communications under programs authorized by Section 215 of the Patriot Act and Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act. And Sens. Wyden (D-Ore.) and Udall made it crystal clear that in spite of all that we have learned about these programs since the NSA leaks began, there may still be a lot that we don't know – and as they've been warning since 2011, they think we deserve to find out.

DO you think you can lie. DO you think you can win? When there is no war, When there is no winner? DO you think you can open your heart? DO you think you can be YOU?
