    “It’s about the next 20 years. 20’s and 30’s, it was the role of government; 50’s and 60’s, it was civil rights. The next two decades are gonna be privacy. I’m talking about the Internet. Talking about cell phones. Talking about health records, and who’s gay, and who’s not. And moreover, in a country born to be free, what could be more fundamental than this?”

    Sam Seaborn, on picking a Supreme Court Justice based on his views on privacy, from “The Short List” episode of THE WEST WING, originally aired November 24, 1999.

    Nailed it on every count.

    You mean Aaron Sorkin, but yeah. Also, isn’t privacy a civil rights issue essentially? Furthermore, “Lisa, you’re taking THE WEST WING way too seriously” is a perfectly acceptable response to this post.
