NSA telephone call database "deeply disturbing"

In this opinion piece in the New York Sun regarding the NSA database of telephone calls, they make mention that Sen. H.R. Clinton (D-NY) is 'deeply disturbed' by this 'revelation'.

Why are the Dems all up in arms about this, when then-President Bill Clinton signed into law the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act of 1994. Apparently the Dems, who were in control of the House, Senate and White House, thought it was a prudent measure to enact this law, but now that they are the minority party in both the House and Senate, and do not control the White House, it is not prudent for President Bush to use this law to actually protect America from its' enemies. And why isn't it prudent for President Bush to use this law to protect America? Because he's not a Dem.

Sen. Clinton needs to talk to her husband, and ask him why he signed that bill into law, so that she isn't so 'deeply disturbed'.
