More Intrusion Into Our Freedoms
Jun 19, 2010 Political
Big Sis, Janet Napolitano, thinks that there needs to be monitoring of the things we do on the Internet because of homegrown terrorism. Yep, she says there is an inevitable trade off when it comes to privacy and keeping people safe.
Forget for one moment that she is a member of the political party that opposed most of the Patriot Act as an invasion of our privacy and focus on what she wants to do.
Fighting homegrown terrorism by monitoring Internet communications is a civil liberties trade-off the U.S. government must make to beef up national security, the nation’s homeland security chief said Friday. FOX News
The left went nuts when legal wiretaps were used (in accordance with law and precedent) to monitor people who were suspected of terrorism and where one party was out of the country but thinks it is OK to monitor communications on the Internet.
This woman also thinks that full body scanners are not much of an invasion and are warranted because her department and her boss were unable to keep the underwear bomber off an airplane. No, it is an invasion of privacy and people have every right to refuse them (of course they will then be harassed with a secondary screening) but to Big Sis, it is OK to invade our privacy at the airport, just as it is on the Internet.
Look, if the government wants to troll around and see what websites are trying to recruit people that is their business but to target individuals or to monitor specific people is an invasion unless it is known that the person has terrorist connections. We already know who this jackass thinks is a domestic terrorist and it is everyone who is not a liberal leftist.
And how about these morons worry about the real threats, you know terrorists from other countries, men, who strangely enough, have Middle Eastern names and practice the religion of Islam?
I have an idea how we can handle Napolitano and her invasion of privacy and stop the oil leak in the Gulf.
How about we stuff her fat *** in the leaking pipe?
Never surrender, never submit.

Obama Calls Finger Pointing “Ridiculous Spectacle”
May 15, 2010 Political
It is very ironic that on the day that Barack Obama expressed his frustration over the efforts to contain the oil leak in the Gulf by pointing fingers at those who are to blame, he expressed how displeased he was at the finger pointing by the entities responsible for the mess.
“I did not appreciate what I considered to be a ridiculous spectacle during the congressional hearings into this matter,” he intoned. “You had executives of BP and Transocean and Halliburton falling over each other to point the finger of blame at somebody else.” CBS
Obama took the opportunity to blame George W Bush (though not by name) which has been his pattern since taking office. The so called “Ridiculous Spectacle” of finger pointing that Obama does not appreciate is something he has been doing since he took office.
Obama or his sock puppets have blamed Bush for every problem faced (and have never given him credit when something good happens) and they continue to this very day. Barack Obama is unable to accept any criticism of something taking place without reminding people that he inherited a mess or that Bush did this or the past administration did that.
That, for you Obama sycophants, is FINGER POINTING. So it smacks of irony that the finger pointer in chief would have trouble with companies pointing fingers at each other.
And to clear the record, oil companies might very well have been friendly with government regulators over the past decade or longer (they were) but Obama has been in office for nearly a year and a half and it was his regime that issued all the waivers in this mess and it continued to issue them after the problem. HIS REGIME issued them. If he were concerned about a cozy relationship he would have been more proactive.
Funny how he does not care how cozy labor unions, communists, socialists, illegal immigrants, and terrorists are with his regime…
At least they now have another “crisis” they can’t let go to waste…
Never surrender, never submit.
