Our Bill of Rights is our check on totalitarianism. Now, because of the government’s complete snooping on our phone records, it’s “totally gone,” according to Ron Paul, the former U.S. representative and presidential candidate. He says that beginning at about 3:54 in the following video. He says:

“It isn’t the Democrats and it isn’t the Republicans. It’s both of them. And then it’s the toleration of the people. The people put up with it. So it’s very very dangerous. I don’t think there’s anything left to our Fourth Amendment. This whole idea of needing probable cause to get a search warrant, that’s totally gone. and this to me is very very serious. But also, it’s an awakening call. Let’s hope that we can get the progressives together with the libertarians and the constitutionalists, and say enough of … we’ve had enough of this.”

Although the current Democratic Obama administration has conducted this tyranny, it was first approved by Republican President Bush in 2007. And powerful Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina just said he is “glad”[1] the NSA is tapping our phones without getting a search warrant. He actually said:

“I’m a Verizon customer. I don’t mind Verizon turning over records to the government if the government is going to make sure that they try to match up a known terrorist phone with somebody in the United States. I don’t think you’re talking to the terrorists. I know you’re not. I know I’m not. So we don’t have anything to worry about.”

Trust the Obama government! And he’s from the party that’s supposed to favor smaller government.

This may our last chance to save freedom in America. Otherwise, see you in a FEMA camp[2].
