    It's oblivious the problem is the program isn't big enough. The Boston bomber post crap on YouTube and Facebook and other places. Never raised a red flag. So I think just to help them test the system I will post things to test it. Maybe we all should to see what the system could handle. Ill go first.

    Bomb bomb bomb
    Terrorist terrorist
    Al Qaeda
    American government.

    There y'all turn.
    Test one

    So the cons were happy as long as Bush did it but suddenly think its a problem now that Obama is doing it. And the libs were all outraged about it while Bush was doing it but are all fine with it now that Obama is doing it. More hypocrisy from both sides. What else is new? :sleeping:

    Guess which Presidential candidates were against the Patriot Act?
    Hint: It wasn't Obama or Romney.

    Hope and change! LOL

    I personally don't have a problem with this, but I think it is hilarious that a liberal is doing it. I don't necessarily like it, I just recognize that the alternatives are worse.

    Obama was part of a bill to stop this exact thing. He was a co sponsor

    What they are doing has NOTHING to do with terrorism. That's a facade. It's ALL about gathering information on potential government and political enemies so they can be prepared to take action on you if they feel threatened. I'm not talking about violence of any sort. You called the Limbaugh show a few times? IRS audit for you. You are gathering up a Tea Party Rally? IRS audit and FBI investigation for you. It's how governments in the past stopped any movements contrary to the government's beliefs.

    Bush
    I don't care what Romney was for

    I don't agree with the patriot act. I am simply stating that this is far beyond what happened during Bush's years. Have you been under a rock?

    Is what would u like to see in the White House? A person who says he for the PA and will use it or a person who tells you he doesn't like and pretends to fight against it but secretly uses it to the utmost?
    Basically do you want a person who is honest about it or a lier? Already know your answer. --a lier because he is your lier.

    All internet traffic was being captured, they had the capability of looking at anything that traveled over the internet.

    I can't believe people are actually suprised by this. I read 1984 and Brave New World in an elective class in high school. They saw it coming decades in advance. And when I heard how cell phone sound is digitalized, I immediately knew Uncle Sam can and would be using computer programs to screen ALL calls they could get their hands on. The Patriot Act might as well have been called "The End of The Fourth Amendment Act". I believe in fully informed truth in advertising..

    Anyone surprised by this Big-Brother surveillance has been asleep at the wheel.

    Well don't bring your phone or pc in the bathroom then because if they can tap into Skype then they can turn your cam on and your mic anytime they want.

    Yeah, because conservative groups always play nice, by the rules, and don't try at every single turn to cheat, manipulate, lie, and abuse the system. They's just all sweet and innocent, ain't they? Never harmed no fly, right?

    Are you that blind to the system? The system is set up so that no one plays nice. It's a game and at our expense.

    Yeah, and your point is? The first thing I learned when I came to the internet in 1978 (Darpanet in those days) was to never - ever post anything that I would not want my mother to see or to see plastered on the front page of the NYT.
