At a time when Congress provides very little oversight of the executive branch, and at a time when torture has become the (wink wink) semi-official policy of that same executive branch, the article in this a.m.'s WashPost about unsupervised "clandestine surveillance" of U.S. residents by the FBI and other federal agencies just makes a true-blue American heart sing, doesn't it?
Domestic spying, secret courts, the unseen and unknowable hand of government twisting the fabric of our freedoms into an unrecognizable wad.
