You miss the point.

Wholesale trolling of this sort is specifically _illegal_.

You're seriously not trying to argue that there's no problem
with this sort of lying and specific side-stepping of U.S. law,
are you?

Sorry -- I'm not going to be sucked into a discussion of this
sort. I'll voice my opinion, move on, and vote the bums out in
November. :-)

A fine line, but all the more fun to watch them dance on it. I mean,
no one really believes the US and China are the only countries spying
on its own people. Do you?
