NSA performed warrantless searches on Americans' calls and emails – Clapper | World news | The Guardian
If we like your phone calls we can keep monitoring your phone calls. Yet another Obama lie:
“When it comes to telephone calls, nobody is listening to your telephone calls. That’s not what this program’s about,” Obama said. “As was indicated, what the intelligence community is doing is looking at phone numbers and durations of calls. They are not looking at people’s names, and they’re not looking at content.”
Obama was referring specifically to the bulk collection of US phone records, but his answer misleadingly suggested that the NSA could not examine Americans’ phone calls and emails.
