The most important point about bugging the phones of politicians in Germany, Spain and elsewhere is that the NSA was keeping Obama and Feinstein in the dark along with all of us.

To stop snooping on a few allied leaders is not sufficient remedy. The US should stop snooping on Americans, too (except those for whom there is a specific, constitutional court order).

Feinstein, aren't US citizens' rights as important as Merkel's?
