Since they were already here in the early 90s, the Patriot Act wouldnt do anything to catch them. Listening to Joe McCarthy might have.

NY Times reports [ http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/29/world/europe/29spy.html?hp ]

A spy swapped identical bags with a Russian official as they brushed past each other in a train station stairwell. Messages were written with invisible ink, hidden in the data of digital pictures, and encoded in messages sent over shortwave radio.

It sounds almost funny considering there is really no need for such methods. It is practically impossible to detect a good spy considering millions of foreigners in USA studying, working, immigrating.

Status: offline 		So what on Earth was all the fuss about intrusion into privacy then Wilbur? Are you saying that the Patriot Acts didnt enable government to spy on the American people and their guests? That they provided no benefit in terms of enhanced monitoring and intelligence gathering capabilities?

What then was the point of these Acts? Surely if they are so toothless, and so incapable of discovering a Russian spy ring moving in on Washington, not to mention some Pakistani guy parking a car bomb in New York, then they are hardly worth having at all? One might even advance a position that they were enacted in order "to be seen to be doing something" perhaps?

Or would you have preferred waterboarding anybody "furreign lookin'" to be sure, especially in the absence of that fascist aka McCarthy?

I cant believe youre dumb enough to ask that. It`s as if you are stuck in some 1950s right wing time warp.

Joseph Losey springs to mind for a start.

And Linus Pauling, Dashiel Hammett, Orson Welles, Leonard Bernstein, Dorothy Parker, Nelson Algren and Charlie Chaplin.
(Pete Seeger doesn't count because he actually was a communist, though.)

It just doesnt seem right to me somehow.

Depends on what you mean by "study". I read extensively, but never majored in it.
