The US National Security Agency likely collects intelligence on congressional lawmakers and members of their staff, a Justice Department official admitted at a committee hearing on Tuesday. Deputy Attorney General James Cole of the US Department of Justice testified during a House Judiciary Committee hearing which was examining proposals to reform the NSA surveillance policies that have been revealed in an ongoing series of disclosures since June. Among the most damning revelations leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden was the realization that the NSA indiscriminately forces companies to provide phone records belonging to millions of Americans.

This reminds me of that movie ‘Enemy of the State’, ever seen it?  This is and rightfully so a total violation of privacy and the constitution.  not that congress shouldn’t be spied on cause they should be, just not by the NSA.   They should be spied on by us, the people, and held accountable for all wrongdoings.
