Well, to some extent I too have reason to be leery. I would not be surprised to find my self locked up due to over zealousness of some government employee. I find our justice system to be far from perfect. So, I wouldn't be surprised to find my self behind bars someday simply as a result of some miscarriage of justice.

Having an occassional wacko bureaucrat or an imperfect justice system is far different, however, than saying the Bush Administration considers, Liberty or the Constitution of the United States as the enemy.

I still don't see the justification in that.

It is with fairly certain knowledge that the government is actively
searching ALL electronic traffic as we speak.

Not that necessarily support that, but how does it violate the Constitutional provisions you cited? Once you toss it out there into the ether, it's not your private paper or effect any more. Nor is it in your house or on your person.
