Snowdens, Becks, Whistleblowers & Snitches

Firstly a big pharaohnic Tut Tut

so this is what they mean, when they say, Obama will be brought down by the left

these attempts at scandals.. tut tut
and this current wave seems like a joint effort

before we get carried away and start the impeachment turrets syndrome
i just got to point out:



1) for snooping laws...
discussing it on government level is a good thing
why do people think its bad that the governmet wants to get involved

private industry
like google, your phone company, energy companies
all collect and distribute information about us

when the government asks for some regulation and asks for transparancy
why do people think its an attack on their liberties... your liberties are being backed by the gov. in the market arena... one should be glad.


2) as for snooping on other countries, but needing a warrent for US citizens

i dont get it...isnt that a good thing for americans


3) as for snooping as a whole.
weve always been doing it...especially since the commercial release of the internet
but only now its being discussed





before i get carried away
i want to leave you with a note

how can a person, from the military or secret services...be a whistleblower?
theres no such thing!
tho they could be a snitch....

just a perspective

Transparency is a positive trend even though it may lead to pain short term.

The NSA onion is being peeled and now includes them feeding their business affiliates information which is essentially state sponsored corporate espionage. This hasn't fully sunk in yet but the implications for global commerce are terrifying. Trade wars were the precursors to WW1 & 2.

You thought WW3 hasn't started yet? Think again. It started in 1971 and the paradigm shifted without you knowing it. WW3 is being fought in the world "market place" and the G7 is dominating. That may change though. Fight a war long enough and the tide will turn. The petrodollar is weakening and this Syria mess could be the end?

Whistleblower = Snitch not in my book

Evil prevails when good men fail to act and in Snowden case he made more then action

Snitch is by far no were near the term Whistle blower

It seems like most people don't care about the snooping.

That is of course...Unless they are doing it to you.

sometimes evil dresses like good

why did they all pick the same month to act....weve been doing it for yonks

Really good perspective.

For my own 2 cents I say;
It's out of control. I know people want Obama
removed, but compared to what Bush Cheney did?
Come on...
And I believe Beck is capable bringing an entire
power system down.... on his house, and that's about it.
