>Let me break this to you gently. The government is not interested in your conversations with your aunt, unless, of course, she is a key terrorist leader.

Addendum: "Let me break this to you gently" was not a very reassuring thing to read from an ex-spook. Apparently, we're stupid and the intelligence community has to nudge us out of our stupidity with an additional helping of condescendence.
