the corddry brothers were debating this on the daily show last night/week, viz wiretapping/national security issues. little corddry (the liberal) quoted ben franklin. big corddry (the repub) said, "with great power comes great responsibility" and stopped the conversation cold. until they attacked each other over the table.
