This what I have been saying since September. We need to come together and have our own army. We need to put aside our internal squabbles and come together to oppose this monster and his army. We simply need a central hub where people can gather to easily obtain information about what they can do to fight, be it send e-mail, etc. go to protests or marches, and the tools...phone, fax numbers etc. to do that. *sigh* But,trying to gather Republicans is like herding chickens. What is best about us...self reliance, independence....will destroy us.
Our Achilles Heel - we want to be free to live our own lives - and allow others the freedom to do thesame- the one rule"Your rights end where my nose begins"
On the other hand, the enemy feels they know what's right for everyone and feel they have the right - and want the power to - force everyone to live under their rule.
"We stand together or we fall apart"mt - I say that should be our banner..
Who are all having a hen party and laying an egg over the President wanting to keep his GD blackberry fer chrissakes. I have never read such idiocy and irrelevant foolishness in all my life.
And as far as security is concerned, when he is on the move where there are security concerns Blackberrys have an OFF button. There is little issue about his unclass communications going out over open lines because White House communications for the most part go out over open lines, unless they are encrypted because they are going to someone who has a decrypt capability. Every time you call the white house on a telephone you are on an open line.
I have never read so much silly nonsense from a bunch of whining crybabies who SO deserved to lose an election in my whole life.
And it is not a special expense to hand a specially checked out blackberry to Pres Obama since such items are standard issue to 4 star generals and admirals at the Pentagon as well as political appointees and other civil servants.
Grow up, get a life, get real and if you want to reengage in politics get a goddamned purpose that anyone is going to care a fig about. Whether or not President Obama decides to have a Blackberry and read his own private emails is not one of those issues. I am about as saddened about what has happened to our country as anyone here, but Republicans LOST this election just like they LOST 2006.
