NSA has massive database of Americans' phone calls

Fellow Americans,

How much more are we going to take, before we revolt?

Either the Congress will act, like responsible elected officials, or we must.

USATODAY.com - NSA has massive database of Americans' phone calls:

"The National Security Agency has been secretly collecting the phone call records of tens of millions of Americans, using data provided by AT&T, Verizon and BellSouth, people with direct knowledge of the arrangement told USA TODAY.

The NSA program reaches into homes and businesses across the nation by amassing information about the calls of ordinary Americans, most of whom aren't suspected of any crime. This program does not involve the NSA listening to or recording conversations. But the spy agency is using the data to analyze calling patterns in an effort to detect terrorist activity, sources said in separate interviews."
