Did Obama forget these words from his U of Chicago days:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Okay, so since they CAN'T PROFILE BECAUSE IT IS NOT PC, (and catching terrorists really isn't the end-game here), our .gov gets the BIGGEST SEARCH WARRANT IN THE HISTORY OF SEARCH WARRANTS and collects data on EVERYONE, in the HOPE that they will catch the odd bad-guy. BUT somehow they missed Major Hassan and the Boston boys. WTF.

Well, that statement would open up a debate that the Boston thing was a hoax.

i knew this was happening, they've leaked enough documents over the years to give you the point.

But, I am furious by it, I hate watching this government use the Constitution as toilet paper and then hide behind it when they get caught.

If even a quarter of America has any fucking sense of liberty anymore, or any sense of reality anymore, then this piece of shit would be impeached before the next month.

My CNN Breaking News message states it has been going on for years and it has produced results.

"It has proved meritorious because we have gathered significant information on bad guys and only on bad guys over the years," says Sen. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia

See? Nothing to worry about. Unless you are a bad guy, of course.

There is no "right to privacy" in the constitution. Remember ECHELON? It took 30 years plus before it was owned up to. Do you really think this is something that hasn't been going on for at least 20 years? The only difference is that the public is so tied into second by second communication that concerns have reached a tipping point. I'm offering no advice or opinion on how to think on this topid, except to note that this has been going on a LONG, LONG time.
 Quoting: PulpNews


Bingo!!

It started with Carnivor. Then there was Echelon, DCS1000, TIA (Total Informational Awareness) and now Stellar Wind.

Since the advent of computer technology data has been collected. As a technological society we have played right into their hands.

Cell phones freed people from being tied to landlines allowing everyone to communicate on the go. Cell phones are tracked via their GPS signal.

Don't mail a letter. Send an email, text, tweet which are all easily collected electronically.

Go paperless for all your bills in the name of saving a tree. More electronic data gathering.

Don't use cash. Use debit or credit cards so there is an electronic record of every purchase you make.

No need to go to the bank to deposit a check. Direct electronic deposit from your employer or snap a photo with your Iphone for instant deposit. More tracking.

Don't take a picture with an old school film camera. Take a pic with your phone and store your photos online with photobucket or flicker.

"Follow me on Facebook" ...What the heck do you expect? Of course they will. When I grew up, being followed was a bad thing.

Send all your computer data to the Cloud. And just where is that cloud? My guess is its hovering over the soon to be completed NSA spy center in Bluffdale, Utah.

You get my drift. For the past 20 or so years, society has been spoon fed technology and lead down a digital path of information gathering. And now people are freaking out because someone discovered that Verizon is handing over phone records? LOL...I hate wake up those who are still sleeping but this is nothing new.

Check out the NSA spy building in Utah which is scheduled to be completed in the fall of this year.

NSA's Stellar Wind "Spy Center" aka Utah Data Center


[link to youtu.be]

If you want to know more, research James Bamford or William Binney, both are NSA whistle blowers.

Our every move is watched electronically, its a fact of life. Actually, I wish the watchers would stop with the electronic monitoring and come to my house to watch me because I hate drinking alone!
