The NSA, Verizon and Your Privacy

[Farbin Kaiber]

"So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Washington DC and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.” - Hunter S. Thompson with Farbin Kaiber

What have I been trying to tell you guys for years?

R, D, doesn't matter. Two sides of the same coins, beholden to interests that no one outside the 0.1% have access to.

Even down to state level elections, the big money donors determine who win by who the provide the finances.

Ex-CIA worker: I exposed U.S. spy scheme to protect 'basic liberties'

It's too bad they don't just eliminate tax-exempt status period.

On this subject, I agree completely. No organization should have tax exempt status, in my opinion.

obama, nsa, doj, are being sued in a civil lawsuit to the tune of $3bn.

so... the taxpayers pay to set this entire thing up and now the taxpayers are going to foot the bill (either way) of this lawsuit. just like bailing out the banks, it's always the taxpayers that are at the losing end of the bill. lol.

all those senators outraged over the leak need to be flogged. I think this is exactly what all the right wing gun nuts are afraid of.

This really shows how the 2 main parties are really the same when it comes down to it. This is also my biggest issue about Obama (continuing Bush policies on war/terror), and he's handling it poorly. Now even some of the Republicans who are about "freedom" are sticking up for the NSA? Eff them!

oh yeah, they "only" spy on you when you communicate with foreign countries. yeah, I'm married to a Canadian citizen. I guess I'm more than likely on their "list".

I like that the NSA expects us to believe them when they say they aren't spying on us. OK, we'll take your word for it. The federal government has never broken it's own laws or lied before! :|

Everything about this stinks.

Plus you should remain confident that even IF they are only monitoring foreigners, they would never, ever everrrr change their mind down the road and apply this to citizens ;)

When you see John Boehner endorsing Obama's explanation of what's going on, you know we are all royally screwed.
