Bush continues his Big Brother campaign…

A senior federal law enforcement official tells ABC News the government is tracking the phone numbers we call in an effort to root out confidential sources.
“It’s time for you to get some new cell phones, quick,” the source told us in an in-person conversation.

ABC News does not know how the government determined who we are calling, or whether our phone records were provided to the government as part of the recently-disclosed NSA collection of domestic phone calls.

So that gives away one way that government is abusing it’s power with the phone records. Did you know that they’re also performing social networking analysis? That’s right, you’re only three phone numbers away from a known terrorist. Turns out that your friend Bob knows Jakob who regularly calls Bin Laden. It is like the Kevin Bacon game, only evil.

This has inspired me to write an adaptation to Pastor Martin Niemöller’s famous poem regarding his experience Nazi Germany:

First they came for the terrorists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a terrorist.
Then they came for the friends of terrorists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a friend of a terrorist.
When they came for me
there was no one left
who could speak out
no one is free
