While I agree with your breakdown and the general statement that #1
should be decided on by the country as a whole. I think it is up to us
as an industry that understands the implications of what is being asked
for to make a statement about #1 even if it is just a clarification of
the implications of this law.

I could be wrong but as I have followed this thread there are 2 issues
at hand.
1) Does the government have a right to know the actions of Americans
on the internet?
2) Is this a responsibility of the ISP to bear the burden of gathering
this information or should the burden be carried by the feds
themselves with little or no cost to the ISP?
This thread started out as we should not be allowing the government to
know our every move.
This is a political discussion that can not and should not be decided
by an ISP, but rather the entire country. We don't have any
jurisdiction on issues such as this.
We do however have a right to contest who is responsible for the
burden of gathering this information.
I wanted to bring this out so that we all understand what this thread
is about, what it started out as and what responsibility WISPA or any
other ISP org has concerning this issue.
One is a social issue the other an industry wide issue.
