security Vs. Civil liberties

After watching FRONTLINES presentation that was primarily based on President Bush's decision to use "domestic spying" post 9/11, I believe that in a way the president did abuse his power to some extent, for I dont believe that he really has the power to just listen in on anyones conversation that he pleases to.Throughout this program alot of people were interviewd however few questions were answered, for many stated that they could not give an answer to the question, for they are not allowed to.
Although I do not really like that the president is doing this, I do however believe that he does have the power to do so. As well I think that it isnt really a big deal I supose if you have nothing to hide,however for me it is just the fact of privacy, I would like to beable to have privacy when I am talking on the phone.
