Know your enemy: Convicted felon, scumbag Republican liar, and all-around evil beurocratic fascist John Poindexter wants to spy and collect data on you. It seems this jackass is good for more than just subverting the democratic process with wacky hijinx like Iran-Contra. He's got all kinds of fun planned for you!
But lets just hang on a minute and hear out their side of the controversy:
"What John Poindexter is doing is developing a tool, he is not exercising the tool, he will not exercise the tool. That tool will be exercised by the intelligence, counterintelligence, and law enforcement agencies," Aldridge said.

Ohhhh... my mistake. I think we can all relax now! Whew!
