    The FBI illegally collected more than 2,000 U.S. telephone call records between 2002 and 2006 by invoking terrorism emergencies that did not exist or simply persuading phone companies to provide records, according to internal bureau memos and interviews. FBI officials issued approvals after the fact to justify their actions. This Story

    E-mails obtained by The Washington Post detail how counterterrorism officials inside FBI headquarters did not follow their own procedures that were put in place to protect civil liberties. The stream of urgent requests for phone records also overwhelmed the FBI communications analysis unit with work that ultimately was not connected to imminent threats.

    I'm sick and tired of my mainstream friends thinking I'm wonky and paranoid when I tell them they shouldn't wait for a WSJ story to determine their reality.

    Here it is normal folks. REALITY!

    only 2,000? seems a bit low.
