President Obama is expected to do some of that in a speech next week. Congress is mulling its own changes, with some talking about suing the National Security Agency.

A leading national security-minded lawmaker, Representative Peter King, warns that some of his Republican colleagues are so over-the-top in their hostility towards the NSA and homeland security that they sound like 1960s anti-war Democrats.

We need a reasoned and informed debate about protecting our country from its enemies. Let’s start by stipulating that the NSA is not one of them.
