Your point is valid - let me correct what I posted initially.

I can say whatever I want to.  Once I have said it, I am responsible for my
statements, and if if it decided in court that I violated laws regarding libel,
endangering public safety by screaming 'fire,' or telling the Soviets the exact
location of every vitally important widget in the US Navy, then I can be fined or
jailed.  HOWEVER, none of this gives the government the right to listen to my
private phone conversations (inside or outside the United States - I am aware of
the court's decision and I think it is wrong) before a suspicion of guilt has
been established and a warrant issued by a court.
