So everyone had a fit when Bush wanted to monitor phone calls of noted terrorists operatives and heavy anti-America political figures…but where is the outrage for Obama’s latest power grab via Homeland Security?
It seems that he has given Janet Napolitano written permission to hand-pick computer specialists to monitor all that we do on social networks including Face book, Twitter and many more. They claim (as Bush did) that they are doing it with the intent to look for possible threats against our country. But if you read the language used, it allows them to report any political comments or activity. Even Craig’s list is vulnerable.
So for those who worried about giving up personal freedom during the Bush years, you can REALLY start to worry now. And I just marvel how RIGHT is now determined by the media according to the political party involved, not truthful values that has made this country great in the past.
If this blog disturbs you, READ UP about this issue. Then if you agree with my assessment, CALL or EMAIL your senator and congressman. There is also a petition being circulated telling Congress to do something.
Meanwhile, I need to stop. They are probably already making note of my blog…
