What happened to America? His name is Barack Obama

Distinguished jazz critic and First Amendment scholar, Nat Hentoff writes: " I can imagine [my immigrant Jewish parents' ] hurt had they read this on the front page of the June 7 Wall Street Journal: “The National Security Agency’s monitoring of Americans includes customer records from the three major phone networks as well as emails and Web searches, and the agency also has cataloged credit-card transactions..."
Were they here, my parents might have asked, “What happened to America?”
“His name,” I would tell them, “is Barack Obama.” Read it all.
