Lindsey Graham, ‘I’m a Verizon customer, I don’t mind if they turn over records to the government.’

Interviewed on “Fox & Friends” this morning, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) commented on the revelation of wide-scale NSA cell phone data collection:

I’m glad the NSA is trying to find out what the terrorists are up to overseas and in our country…I’m a Verizon customer. I don’t mind Verizon turning over records to the government if the government is going to make sure that they try to match up a known terrorist phone with somebody in the United States. I don’t think you’re talking to the terrorists. I know you’re not. I know I’m not, so we don’t have anything to worry about. – Senator Super Freak

On a somewhat unrelated issue, Senator Graham felt the need to reassure Americans after openly questioning if the First Amendment applied to bloggers.

Just to be clear, every blogger is entitled to constitutionally-protected Freedom of Speech.
