Call data records are not public record. It is revealing, private data held by a private company, and the US government is blanket requesting it from carriers to do analysis and to have it "just in case". It's unlawful and it's occurring without any oversight, contrary to what Obama and his cronies are saying.
Modded funny? I'm in agreement.
Anyone can make an omelet with eggs. The trick is to make one with none.
