The House of Representatives on a fairly close vote upheld the right of the NSA to collect data from which they can search for bad guys when they get a confirmed lead and Judicial approval.
In proof that their are nut jobs in both parties, the Tea Party combined with the ultra-left to almost pass a law barring this. These irresponsible elected officials would take away one of our few effective tools for finding future terrorists before they hatch their plot. This tool is not going to be 100% effective, but no tool is, and at least this tool is somewhat effective. Only with the responsible votes of the middle (and Boehner and Pelosi voted the same), was this bill defeated.
The country cannot be ruled by extremist policies of either side.
