- Good intentions don't justify violating rights secured by the Constitution. That's WHY we have a Constitution.
- Any congressman claiming that ppl don't have reasonable expectation of privacy in personal phone records should make his publicly available.
- Pres Obama is wlcm to attend one of my town halls as special guest so he can hear outrage over suspicionless spying directly from Americans.

- Smith-Gibson Amendment to #NDAA, which prohibits government from indefinitely detaining you without charge or trial, failed 200-226.
- About to speak on Smith-Gibson Amendment to #NDAA.
- Other detention amendments to #NDAA may be well intentioned, but they are flawed & likely to be interpreted to harm your rights, not help.
- Smith-Gibson Amendment is only amendment to #NDAA that protects YOU against indefinite detention without charge or trial. Vote coming up.

- If Mr. Clapper was concerned about revealing classified info, appropriate & lawful response is "That's classified" or "I can't answer that."
- Perjury is a serious crime. Mr. Clapper should resign immediately.
- Members of Congress can't make informed decisions on intelligence issues when head of intel community willfully makes false statements.
