In reply to: BJ 's message, "Re: Happy Independence Day!" on Thursday, July 06, 11:40:41am

interferes with our government�s ability to stop terrorist�s threats? I could really care less if the government listens to my calls or reads my email, as I have nothing to hide. The problem arises when the government interferes in our rights as outlined in the constitution. I doubt any of the founding fathers ever imagined the power the press would attain. I have to believe if faced with some of the issues evident today, they would have had second thoughts about giving the press freedom to print our battle plans on the front page.
