The Administration is using scare tactics to acquire vast new powers to spy on all Americans.
as usual, you're not answering the question. OK, the Clinton administration was guilty of this. It only has gotten worse by all accounts.

what about today? this administration?

You are the one constantly pounding the drum about the dangers of totalitarian/socialist/communist tendencies. Where does the line fall here?
