The problem with the government spying on Americans, is that the label of "enemy" is subject to interpretation. Many people can be unjustly labeled as enemies of the state and be spied on or worse. Just look at how many normal Americans are being denied access to air travel just because they end up on a government do-not-fly list. We're talking about a greater loss of freedom than just being barred from flight. The local news even featured a story about a toddler who was on the do-not-fly list. That just goes to show that the government does make mistakes.
