People are correct in being paranoid of the
U.S. government being totally out of control.

The NSA/FBI even have a locked secret court located within the main
Justice Department building that only government employees can visit.
It has never turned down a request, and doesn't even need suspicion
of a crime to authorize a "black-bag job" burglary.

Question:   Then why bother?
Answer:     To give the illegal activity the imprimatur of
constitutionality.

And presidents issue secret directives that obliterate constitutional
rights.

Like the creation of the NSA.

NSA testimony to Congress: "There is no law that prevents our domestic
spying".

Such is the unconstitutional power of the Presidential Magic Order.

It is even threatened to be used to wipe out Congressional legislation:

:   However, President Clinton has threatened to veto ProCode.
:   If Congress over-rides a VETO President Clinton signed an
:   executive order (11/15/96) which states he can revoke any law
:   passed on national security grounds:
:    
:     "Upon enactment of any legislation reauthorizing the
:     administration of export controls, the Secretary of Defense,
:     the Secretary of State, and the Attorney General shall
:     reexamine whether adequate controls on encryption products can
:     be maintained under the provisions of the new statute and
:     advise the Secretary of Commerce of their conclusions as well
:     as any recommendations for action. If adequate controls on
:     encryption products cannot be maintained under a new statute,
:     then such products shall, where consistent with law, be
:     designated or redesignated as defense articles under 22 U.S.C.
:     2778(a)(1), to be placed on the United States Munitions List
:     and controlled pursuant to the terms of the Arms Export
:     Control Act and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations.
:     Any disputes regarding the decision to designate or
:     redesignate shall be resolved by the President."

The U.S. Constitution is in tatters, disappearing piece-by-piece,
emasculated by politicians constantly beating drums of War for
"Law & Order".
