"Nobody is listening to your telephone calls." - Barack Obama

President Bush described his anti-terrorist measures as narrow and targeted, but a FRONTLINE investigation has found that the National Security Agency (NSA) has engaged in wiretapping and sifting Internet communications of millions of Americans; the FBI conducted a data sweep on 250,000 Las Vegas vacationers, and along with more than 50 other agencies, they are mining commercial-sector data banks to an unprecedented degree.

Spying on the Home Front also looks at a massive FBI data sweep in December 2003. On a tip that Al Qaeda "might have an interest in Las Vegas" around New Year's 2004, the FBI demanded records from all hotels, airlines, rental car agencies, casinos and other businesses on every person who visited Las Vegas in the run-up to the holiday. Stephen Sprouse and Kristin Douglas of Kansas City, Mo., object to being caught in the FBI dragnet in Las Vegas just because they happened to get married there at the wrong moment. Says Douglas, "I'm sure that the government does a lot of things that I don't know about, and I've always been OK with that -- until I found out that I was included."
Someone's not telling you the truth. In fact, as PBS points out, the Bush Administration wasn't telling us the truth about the scope and scale of spying on citizens' communications. So why on Earth should we believe that Barack Obama is telling the truth?
The fact of the matter is that Barack Obama cannot be telling the truth. If he were to tell us the truth, he would be divulging CLASSIFIED information, which would make him just culpable as the whistleblowers that he absolutely despises.
On many of those facts; I have no idea has even the frontline report rely on a source and we do not know just now good that source is or if the source has a agenda. Sources often have agenda and are not always truthful like anything else.it seems more and more journalist a are in such a competitive field that they often run with a story and that they themselves have a agenda. One only has to look at the Westmoreland suit to see just now true that can be even with famous and very successful journalist. That suit changed the trust in journalist for many because it reveal so much.
