this one ought to blow you away. Course, if the Patriot Act made you mad, you probably think these tactics are legitimate.

Not that it matters. This "Task Force" will probably be listened to about like Simpson-Bowles was.

The Patriot Act did make me mad. Not sure why that makes mecthink one way orthe other about this. The Patriot Act should be repealed. The government needs to quit spying on Americans in the name of making them safe. News flash.....we don't need secret 'surveillance' to make us safe. I'm beginning to think Snowden might actually be a hero for his beliefs on this issue. That scares the bejeebers out of me. But this NSC shit is totally fucking wrong.

Now put that in your pipe and smoke it.

I Have no idea what any of that means. Anybody care to summarize in laymen terms?

[BarryBobPosthole]

I was taught to have a healthy respect for security, and its hard to see this Snowden do things that are this criminal and expect toget away with it. But sometimes its whats right that matters the most. In my mind, the jury isn't in on that asshole. But I'm definitely interestedcin what he's had to say.

Back in the 1700's there was a group of folks that broke a bunch of Laws (at that time) and actually started a country....
Even signed their name to a document that meant sure death had the war gone the other way.

"We don't need secret surveillance to make us safe".

He said.

Actually, I don't mind the secret surveillance. I DO mind the fact that someone stupider'n me decided it needed to be secret, and paid for the secretizing of it with MY money.
