It's a crying damn shame the Feds don't consider our porous borders a national security issue. Maybe we could give the illegals a laptop with wifi as they cross the border. |

Identifying narcissists isn't difficult. Just look for the person who is constantly fishing for compliments and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism. We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. | |

Not to worry. They're passing laws to make sure the police can't be surveiled. Based on the slippery slope principle, it's only a matter of time before we private citizens can't be surveiled either. |
| As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good? | |

I'm starting to wonder if illegal immigrants have more right to privacy than we citizens. |

There's something fundamentally wrong with the assumptions currently being made by Washington about the way they should tackle problems such as homeland security. And let's face it, it's not just Obama's bunch who have little respect for privacy, they're just building on what the last bunch of cowboys started. My guess is that if you put Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld in a room with Obama's group, whoever the hell they are, they'd all pretty much be in agreement with one another about what needed to be done, and most likely complain about how ungrateful the citizenry are about the fact that they're being protected. I'm not even that big on privacy, certainly not by American standards - but even I can see this is bloody awful. |
