How does "monitoring foreign terrorist communications and track their finances w/o restrictions" interfere in "our" lives of freedoms?

You have let a handful of whacko sick zealots usurp our God given freedoms.

Could you spell out exactly what freedoms h/b usurped? I will repeat I've never heard anyone spell out anything specific about this. Can you do it?

You live in fear if you wish

What does fear have to do with monitoring foreign terrorists communications and tracking their finances? It merely sounds prudent to me. I think the unreasonable fear, I will say paranoia, comes from fearing that our freedoms are in danger from our governments efforts to defend the country against terrorists. Now thats a crippling and dangerous fear.

This is an elective war

Is the war on terror elective? I don't think so. Terrorists have been and will continue to make war on us whether we decide to pretend otherwise.
