While I know it's not the same thing, I've worked in two state reps offices. We LOVED to tell callers that the Rep. agreed with them. If the Rep. didn't agree with them...unfortunately that is how we would respond.

I heard that the NSA would ask/notify Congress before they start collecting and storing GPS data from citizens. Does the NSA legally have to ask/notify Congress?Also, can the NSA consider GPS data as meta-data?

Edit: The reason for question is I don't really trust the NSA saying they would notify Congress if they expanded the program. So I just want to make sure they have to.

At this point if the NSA has the power to do something, I assume they are doing it. I actually watched Sen. Wyden's speech yesterday on C-SPAN (couldn't take watching more Trayvon coverage). Probably the best thing I've watched on C-SPAN in quite sometime. Thank you so much for the thoughtful response.
