today.reuters.com — The federal government wants to be able to know everything you do, but they don't want anyone to know about their actions. They are willing to argue both sides of a case to prevent citizens and states from finding out what AT&T has been doing in those secret rooms.

Except its worse then that because they control a lot of key bridges on the internet which means its not just about phones, they can easily give the NSA access to most US internet communications and its been said that they already have packet sniffers setup.

QUOTE: 2nd, I still would have voted him in. I don't think Gore could have handled the pressure of the 9/11 attack. I just simply don't trust Kerry, wait I do, no I don't. Just kidding, he doesn't seem to have a moral or ethical compass. ::QUOTE::Did you ever think that there is ample evedence that we might not have even had a 9/11 attack if Gore were president? I mean all the evedence shows that Bush was at best a sleep at the switch when all the former Clinton people were screaming their heads off that we were about to be attacked. That alone should have made you think twice before voting for him again. PLUS there is the fact that Bush's use of the 9/11 tragedy for political gain is simply discusting. I mean never mind the fact that everything he has ever touched has turned to s**t, he has no experience, nothing qualifies him to lead besides the fact that his name is Bush, and he can barely speak english.

...and as you look around you and up at the sky, ask yourself has it always been *this* way.If you find yourself saying, why yes it always *has* been this way.I would inquire just how close to the cellphone tower slash mind control machine from where you live.I use to laugh at the tin-foil hat crowd, now I'm taking *them* seriously and laughing at what is trying to pass for reality.Regards

I agree with Lewis Black about how we should select our next president: "When the winner of American Idol is selected, that person is immediately blind-folded and handed a dart that they throw at a large map of the United States. Wherever the dart lands is where we send the monkey. We take a monkey and strap a parachute to him, load him in an airplane and when the airplane is over the spot on the map where the dart landed, we shove the little f**ker out of the plane. The first person's hand that the monkey grabs is the president!"Go ahead, mod me down but it's worth a chuckle anyway...

@ mongrolia, you are a silly goose! There I said it and I don't care if they ban me, and you know who "they" are. The sky is not falling. America will NEVER become a totalitarian country, as long as there are people who care, like you and me. Go have a drink, kiss someone you love, and share a nice meal with them. Trust me you'll feel better. Then get back to bashing our president, with no fear in your heart. It's all gonna be OK. smile.

It doesn't matter who is in office. The same machine runs it all. I vote, yet I do not believe in the end that it really matters.

Quote"I wish that I could get paid for this. But I just don't see the endless parade of " people" who's rights have been taken away. I am just a hard working, tax paying, family guy, who loves America, warts and all. My parents grew up under a real totalitarian government. So maybe I might have a little more experience with lack of freedoms than other people. I eagerly await your intelligent reply...."QuoteIf you wait for the lack of freedoms to mount they will lead to that totalitarian government your parents had to deal with.

With the current Adinistration (George W Bush)'s campaign to ram freedom and democracy into the Middle East - what with the erroding freedoms and privacy protections happening in the US, it won't be long before the entire Middle East has more freedoms than the US.I mourn/cry for you my poor American brothers!
