> The pigs in Orwell’s “Animal Farm” have more suavity than the US government is demonstrating now. Amen to that. To me it's amazing that in years past, spying on political opponents was enough to make a president resign, while apparently today spying on the world's population doesn't put heat on anyone. Of course circumstances are different, now it's the state doing the spying, not a political party; yet one might wonder what's really different except for bipartisanship.
