So, no. I think you're misunderstanding Howard Dean, and may have misunderstood him for a long time.

When he became chair of the DNC he appointed a homophobic Pentecostal minister as his chief of staff and CEO of the 2008 convention. What does that tell you?

My privacy doesn't matter one bit. But people who affect my life are also being spied on. I'd guess this is a question that can be asked a lot going forward and it reduces trust in our government (or anyone who has a voice).

If there's a last minute surge is "yes" votes that takes it from losing to winning by a single vote in the house can you say info from the NSA didn't have anything to do with the changed votes? It would be nice to think the President was able to make his case that this is a worthwhile mission. But I will have doubts.
