Big Brother is getting bigger

Whither thou goest oh sweet civil liberties? The FBI is taking over and you better watch out because of these new regulations.

"The new road map allows investigators to recruit informants, employ physical surveillance and conduct interviews in which agents disguise their identities in an effort to assess national security threats. FBI agents could pursue each of those steps without any single fact indicating a person has ties to a terrorist organization."

The above paragraph is quoted from a news article this morning regarding the expanded powers of the FBI. I wonder if this could cause as many problems as it solves. It actually sounds a little bit un-American to me.
