The politicians love to quote our founders, as well as hypothize as to what they would think about a contemporary issue. Well, here are a few from "the Father of the United States Constitution" that pretty clearly states that our government is slipping and sliding towards tryany". Wonder if the NSA would have James Madison in its sights over such "radical" statements as these? "I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpations." - James Madison, 4th president of the U.S. "If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy." - James Madison, 4th president of the U.S. "The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home." - James Madison, 4th president of the U.S.
