This Is Happening in America? | Nat Hentoff | Cato Institute: Commentary

This Is Happening in America? | Nat Hentoff | Cato Institute: Commentary: "Attorney General Eric Holder, our chief law officer, along with Director of National Intelligence James Clapper Jr., agreed to "new guidelines allowing the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC)... to hold on to information about Americans in no way known to be connected to terrorism — about you and me, that is — for up to five years." Its previous limit was 180 days.

So, you or I would be a "person of interest" to the FBI and other intelligence agencies for five years."
