Dear Senator Feinstein: What part of Operation Spy On *Everyone* did you not understand? [View all]

Last edited Tue Mar 11, 2014, 07:34 PM - Edit history (1)

Did you not think that you were part of Everyone?

Did you still think that Congress was somehow special when you saw the Executive branch lie to you so easily and without remorse? That Congress would be the only group in the world not subject to unlimited surveillance and disruption without meaningful oversight?

Really?

Let this be a lesson. Now go out there and start doing your job. Working with the Judicial branch, there's still some time, but perhaps not much.

Do. Your. Job.

Your house is fabulous enough; your bank accounts are bursting at the seams.

Now. It's. Time. To. Do. Your. #%^*ing. Job.
