wtf is with the Paranoia in the U.S. Government?

MSNBC today printed a story (here) that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has been opening mail - even better is that it's from a retired history professor

And then it still gets better, the guy that told the press was an officer in WWII where he apparently had to censor his troops and he reckons the job Homeland Security is doing is just a bit less than average.

God save America!
