Like all good talking points, yours extract a pound of FUD from an ounce of truth.
1. I assume you're referring to that flap over Schiavo, in which case, the "laws that apply to single individual" was not reviewed because the SC said it WASN'T about one person. 2.

What the heck is this babbling about? Every law regarding spying on individuals, INCLUDING THE PATRIOT ACT, requires judicial oversight. 4. You seem unaware that federal cases have done away with both of these practices. 5. What is this, if slightly exaggerated, legitimate complaint doing in your rant of outright falsehoods? 6. Move to the average dictatorship and publicly proclaim the rest of the world would be better without it.
