The war on dissent

If anyone is nostalgic for the Nixon years (and who wouldn't be) this story should warm their hearts. More evidence has come to light that the FBI is monitoring the emails of anti-war groups in Maine. FBI records obtained through a freedom of information act request from the Maine ACLU included copies of emails associated with Maine Veterans for Peace and Peace Action Maine. It is always possible that these groups may have members with Asian names or funny beards in which case the surveillance is understandable.
