I prefer reading it in the original German.

Is there any guarentee that this will be the only thing they'll look
at. Remember that the Pentagon is apparently spying on peace groups,
listing them in a threat database and ordering extra surveillance. The
FBI has been wanting expansion of the Patriot Act in part to silence
"Radical Librarians" according to on recent email that was released.

So how much longer until it becomes those who democratically oppose
the current administration. With no oversight and protection as
afforded by the FISA courts, its very possible.

There's a wonderful quote by a German paster from the second world war
that applies:

First They Came for the Jews

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.
