      @STL_Cari #Surprising its being done to this extent. Surprising the administration who criticized this behavior has grown it exponentially.

      @PattersonKSDK Agreed. Can you imagine this technology in the hands of someone like Nixon?

      @STL_Cari Sure. Terrible. I can also see him getting caught and disgraced even faster than before.

    @nbcnightlynews @mattdpearce I'll say it again: No surprise. Remember Bush & the FISA court when that came to light? This is the same.
