Call me old-fashioned...

Guess I'm one of those old-timers who believe the constitution means what it says, unlike Souter. And btw, near as I can tell, there's no constitutional right to "national security".

Pretty simple in my book; you err on the side of protecting individual privacy and liberty. You err on the side of providing the people with too much information.

Everything else is - to use Roberts' unfortunate metaphor - calling balls and strikes. The rules of the game are codified in the Constitution of the United States. End of story.
