The Obama Administration has left a number of stumbling blocks in the way of any successor but the following information should make the blood of any real, patriotic American run cold. From The Great American Daily:

Let's take this apart a little at a time. "America’s 60,000-person-strong domestic spying apparatus — to make
available raw spying data to all other federal intelligence agencies,
which then can pass it on to their counterparts in foreign countries and
in the 50 states upon request. She did so, she claimed, for
administrative convenience. Yet in doing this, she violated basic
constitutional principles that were erected centuries ago to prevent
just what she did…" First, let's take on the potential domestic effect of this. This reduces what standards of proof may be imposed if a warrant would otherwise be necessary. That standard may be encased in law but let's face it, it is also in certain situations at least up to an individual judge. The standard is reduced to "governmental need". Aren't you glad that your privacy will no longer serve as a bulwark against "governmental need"? Now here's the really frightening news: according to the article, this will also make your information (which should be private but isn't because of NSA spying) available to Lord-knows-whom worldwide. To my mind, this opens at least a couple of possibilities: that your information will be for sale, perhaps from our own government employees to any of a wide variety of characters worldwide with a wide variety of interests. The other possibility is truly terrifying. That is that domestic or foreign interests will be able to use your information to find and subjugate you. Do you think that's impossible? Consider what's happening on the streets of the U.S. right now. What do successful revolutionaries do to overthrow a government? They get the systems set up! After you destroy or render ineffective the current system you must have something with which to replace it! Communications, lines of authority, etc., all have to be constructed. Funding must be acquired. If necessary or advantageous, the appropriate government officials must/should be bribed/corrupted/subverted. You have to find out just how far the people within the current system will let you push. I believe that's what's happening right now.
