Another Reason Spying is not a good idea

So I am unsure if this satellite was used for intelligence related reasons, but for my purposes I am going to assume it was not (at least not all of the time)

This article on MSNBC. com is a perfect example why spying on the citizens of your own country is a vary bad idea. In rare cases the use of satellites for spying may lead to death. Unnecessary and liberty-hating death.

The US government, regardless of who is running it is an incompetent, out of control piece of shit. When this is paired with President Bush's tendency to limit freedom and liberty by spying on US citizens, something is bound to go wrong.

Now a spy satellite is going to loose power and hit the earth possibly killing people. According to a government spokesperson this happens frequently. Interesting.

Here's an idea. Start valuing freedom and liberty and then there will be significantly less situations where a satellite will malfunction and crash into the earth in a fiery blaze of hazardous materials.
