We need to gather intelligence, but we need to do so legally.

If we have intelligence on the location of terrorist training centers, it is insane not to act.

Ever since 9/11, our intelligence agencies, as part of the 'war on terror,' have expanded their operations to include American citizens. I was 'terrorized' when I learned that the National Security Agency was intercepting information on Americans.

There is a huge difference between gathering intelligence in foreign countries, even our allies, and secretly getting information on U.S. citizens.

We need to make a greater investment in human intelligence.

I think a flat tax has merit. Anything would be better than the current tax code.
