An organization I tend to keep a close tab on, known as the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), through up a report about a memo related to warrantless wiretapping in our nation. I know, I’m not a news site, but I brought links! ^_^
This is just the weird sort of thing that makes me very concerned about what has been and is going on in our country. In case some of you have been living under a rock for the past couple of years, let’s have a look-see at some of the reports that have been popping up in the news. It does sound a little odd, I guess. It may even seem a little unbelievable, and there is always the person that says, “If you have nothing to hide, you shouldn’t be concerned.” Well, I don’t have anything to hide; however, I don’t want someone rummaging through my life trying to make sure I don’t!
Now, I’ve been a rather partial individual to Socialism, but not in the way that people tend to associate it. I am not however, a fan of having something like the KGB or Stazi, or informants running around reporting on every little thing someone does and then that individual disappearing off the face of the planet for long stretches of time. Our system of government actually has a few hallmarks of Socialism; however, I would be most displeased to suddenly be living in the worst parts of Soviet-era Russia or SS monitored Germany.
It sounds like something out of a book in my personal opinion, but here is the kicker..trust me you’ll love this. The Bush Administration has this fancy new keen idea (well not really new, but bear with me) that the Constitution doesn’t apply. Seriously…read for yourself. You can find the link at the top (report) or you can find it here.
