King: During Last Election, Democrats “Knew What Internet Sites We Were Looking At”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioCAE1er850
Video Description:
Glenn Beck asks Steve King if he thinks that the NSA surveillance program is being used to blackmail lawmakers and King says it is quite possible because during the last election, Democratic strategists even knew what websites Republican candidates were visiting.
The NSA admitted on Friday that they are listening without a warrant.
http://talk.baltimoresun.com/showthread.php?331788-NSA-***ADMITS***-Listening-To-US-Domestic-Calls-WITHOUT-A-WARRANT-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The National Security Agency has acknowledged in a new classified briefing that it does not need court authorization to listen to domestic phone calls.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler, a New York Democrat, disclosed this week that during a secret briefing to members of Congress, he was told that the contents of a phone call could be accessed “simply based on an analyst deciding that.”
If the NSA wants “to listen to the phone,” an analyst's decision is sufficient, without any other legal authorization required, Nadler said he learned. “I was rather startled,” said Nadler, an attorney and congressman who serves on the House Judiciary committee.
Not only does this disclosure shed more light on how the NSA’s formidable eavesdropping apparatus works domestically it also suggests the Justice Department has secretly interpreted federal surveillance law to permit thousands of low-ranking analysts to eavesdrop on phone calls. “

I hate it when a lying 29 year old twerp aint lying. He's still a twerp though. ; )
I haven't formed an opinion about Snowden yet, but I agree with you that the important point is that the NSA is violating the Constitution.
I believe it.
My niece respect me, I know she does.
Remember, she’s living with a liberal, a nice guy really, but he’s some kind of public union member and Tina....she’s struggled and bought a home all by herself, she’s under water a bit but she works on and says she’s the light.
She admits outright that she’s acknowledges readily that she’s not smart enough to have a political opinion....I suppose she means not informed enough cause she’s certainly smart enough. And no, she’s not informed enough to have an opinion. I asked her if liberal friend Joe Blow ever watches Fox News.
“No. He would not ALLOW Fox News on the TV.”
My rant with niece was not only her tirade about Rush, and the Tea Party, all boilerplate she heard somewhere, but it’s how they take words from someone else and say it’s their opinion. When I asked niece to tell me just what Rush ever said that so ired her, of course she had no answer. She never listened to Rush Limbaugh in her life. Joe Blow boyfriend...a real mental lightweight, told her Rush was bad.
I told her it was arrogant to refuse to watch a network which beats all the other cable news networks hands down and even some of the Lamestream take a back seat to Fox. How on earth can one be so full of themselves as to pronounce that which a large majority of the people choose? 20 million people listen to Rush Limbaugh daily. How arrogant to call 20 million people stupider than you.
My rule is going to be, from now on, that I will NEVER discuss politics in any setting that is not, specifically, a political one. So I shall opinionate on FreeRepublic, for example, but not at family gatherings with liberals around.
I SHALL, however, continue to write on the subject. Don’t forget my Delaware column, which many, many read and I even managed to get daughter and Tina reading it as I speak of many folks they both know. I also am friends on Facebook with my nieces and I pontificate quite often.
I also have my own Blog which nieces et al read fairly regularly.
THAT will be my political forum, a site that they can, or not, choose to visit, and read my take on things.
That’s my decision.
For now.
And now, time for the Sunday Show Transcripts:

Dick Cheney and George Bush had the goods on Obama in 2007. I sure wish they had honored their oaths to fight the enemies within. All Cheney did was give Obama a dirty look at the inauguration.
Give me hell for saying it but that’s the truth. They could have stopped the evil communist America hater. And no one would have even known.
“I’m not real crazy about Cheney’s talking points.”
We laughed when he referred to a “Rolodex” a couple times.
We also were not crazy about his talking points, generally.
I didn't speak about it a lot but she would bring them up and she found she agreed with 75% of what I said and then became a taxpayer.
Pray for America
Somebody stayed up and watched the Bruins game....ahem.
Yes, and no.
What’s a Bruin?
Putin responds re ring from Kraft:
What stuck out most to me was Cheney sayin' that "Congress approved this" because he talked about it behind closed doors with "eight or nine Congressional leaders".
Sounds to me like the man needs a Constitution transplant, too.
In Denver alone I know for a fact they can sort the information they have by blocks in neighborhoods, by R’s, D’s and I’s and by issue and voting patterns. Also by race or any other sort item within that database. It just depends on the algorithm query they want to use.
It’s all done with the end justifying the means.
And thats the secret everyone doesn’t want to talk about.
Instead of “ we have a suspected terrorist and need to get more data on that
individual” it’s lets mine everyone, and in the name of security we can do a whole
bunch of other things that serve our political interest.
Glenn Beck asks Steve King if he thinks that the NSA surveillance program is being used to blackmail lawmakers and King says it is quite possible because during the last election, Democratic strategists even knew what websites Republican candidates were visiting.
Hill / Bill had the FBI files.
Now the Dems have metadata.
Think of all the trash you get in your junk mail that’s unwanted.
Someone will see that an claim you are into many things you don’t have interest
in to attack your character.
Also think of your searches..
My wife asked me to look for some perfume named Baby Doll.
Googled it, and afterwards was bombarded by porno site material I didn’t ask for or want.
Under metadata, it would look like that’s what I’m into....
Thats the scary part of what the politicians aren’t telling us.
