And when they do, they will be dealt with. Until that time, my life is more important than my privacy. But thats just me.

I agree with you, in that I value my life over my privacy; but I honestly don't feel threatened whatsoever. I am much more worried about getting into a car accident or choking on a piece of food than about getting killed by an act of terrorism. I'm not going to want the government monitoring all of my driving and eating to protect me, so I'm definitely not going to want the government monitoring my mail, of all things, to protect me from a much more unlikely death. For the President to "interpret" the right to open mail in any circumstance deemed "exigent" seems a bit too much for me.
