This is unbearably sad.
The dawning awareness, that we aren’t in Kansas any more Toto : |
This is a powerful reason to defund the NSA, prosecute the people who are letting it shit all over our liberties, and then impeach the President who is persecuting the one person who stood up to this tyranny.
She already made herself a political target by mentioning scripture.
I continue to be amazed how a handfull of savages have frightened Americans into giving up everything to be “safe”
Never let a crisis go to waste.
A dirty nuke in a major city and we will all be running around naked, spreading our cheeks for inspection, and asking “May I have another, PLEASE...I’m Oh so scared.
If she's not willing to take a stand politically, she really has no grounds to complain.

GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH.
What happened to that powerful understanding?
Everyone should be free to have private lives and communication. Not just the elite.
We couldn’t keep it, Ben.
I’m envious of the kids who don’t KNOW about the wonderful human experiment in liberty the Founders started. I grew up believing it with all my heart and soul. So I am the one sad now.
Surveillance of law-abiding American citizens by Big Brother is unlawful. However, Big Brother has shown a penchant for not following the law as long as the dictator is in office.

She dances right past her right decision, so she claims, not to be "a political person."

If you will not become involved in politics, be assured politics will become involved with you.
During the Cuban Missile Crisis I remember planes going overhead every few minutes. Our SAC guys were trying to keep as much in the air as possible so if we were hit by nukes they would already be in the air and ready to hit the USSR.
Scary times - but not so scary the government attacked the privacy of citizens. People back then had a sense of prospective... and an awareness fear was something to stand up to - not a crisis that shouldn't be wasted. Our leaders didn't act like hysterical women...
Hysteria would come years later when a few dozen Islamist ran planes (ours - they didn't have the money to buy planes) into buildings. We were attacked - not by a country or an army - not even by planes with nuclear bombs... just a few dozen lowlifes. And for this - for these lowlifes - we gave up our privacy? Our freedoms? It's nuts. Paranoid and stupid.
Wow. Powerful...both the article and Ms Jones’ amazingly effective writing style.
