We should probably look on the bright side of this situation.

They quite literally can watch your ideas form as you type, the officer said. This is why when I type I think about totally unrelated things, so no one can watch my ideas form. For example, while I was typing this sentence, instead of thinking about the content of this sentence, the idea I had was to clean the litter box before I go to bed so I don't wake up to any surprises in the living room tomorrow morning.
By using this method I prevent them from watching my ideas form as I type, rendering their surveillance moot.

The libs have brought my beloved America to her knees, but I will never abandon her. If it takes my bones to fertilize her recovery and return, then thats okay with me. I'm with you. Whatever it takes to restore my beloved country.

The saying some use is, Soap box, ballot box, jury box, cartridge box. In that order. Way I see it, were in the jury box phase with these scandals. Actually, there's one interim step between the third and last box, and that is massive, widespread civil disobedience. I didn't say violence. I said civil disobedience, like what Gandhi and MLK used to force sweeping social change.
I would argue that we're between step three and four right now, and that we still have a window of opportunity to peacefully restore our republic to its foundational moorings.
But as they say, "opportunity waits for no man." We'd better hurry, or we'll be left with but one terrible option.

Is it being leaked now because the enemy is So In Your Camp that they no longer have to be stealth?

I dont have a problem with this if the data analysis stays strictly within the walls of the NSA where individual identities are automatically isolated and replaced with volatile, anonymous keys throughout the process of analysis. Gene, it's a fundamental abridgement of the 4th Amendment. It's inspection before the fact. A terrible, and unwarranted invasion of every American's privacy.
There's got to be a better way.

Id much prefer taking back the United States, and bringing her back to what she was created to be. The libs have brought my beloved America to her knees, but I will never abandon her. If it takes my bones to fertilize her recovery and return, then thats okay with me. Ezekiel 37
1. The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the wind of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones:
2. And he led me around among them; and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, behold, they were very dry:
3. And he said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, you know:
4. And he said to me, Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, hear the word of the Lord:
5. Thus says the Lord God to these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live:
6. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the Lord:
America is not like other nations. Different spirit.
Isaiah 1.
7. Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire; as for your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as if overthrown by strangers:
8. And the daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, like a besieged city:
9. If the Lord of hosts had not left us a very small remnant, we should have been like Sodom, and we should have been like Gomorrah:
Can these bones live? Od Yosef chai.
All the flowers of tomorrow are in the seeds of today.

Where is that little guy in the racist gif when you need him? Shouldn't be hard to locate with a search. You should post it.

So, what does one do with all that ammonium nitrate?

I’ve seen a reference to the 3rd amendment as well. We’re literally being required to quarter the kings men (devices) within our homes. (smart meters, phones of all kinds, etc)

i was thinking that too. Trying to divert blame to Bush again.
It was Bush that tried to give us the Total Information Awareness project, that tracked a helluva lot more than what PRISM seems to track.
This is a part of why I don't trust either party. Bush fully embraced everything Clinton was privately doing, tried to one-up him with TIA, had part of it struck down by Congress, and yet it's still alive in kicking in 2007 and now in 2013 under Obama.
It may have a smaller scope than TIA, but it doesn't take much web traffic, phone call logs, text logs, VOIP logs, etc. to figure out your personality - who you associate with, what interests you have, etc.
It's quite chilling to me to see the things being talked about in 2001 and 2002 being played out here in 2013, even after Congress supposedly killed them off (they didn't do squat, just caused the government to split it up into a bunch of smaller projects/databases).d
A lot of FReepers spoke out against this stuff in 2001 and 2002, and were shouted down over calls to do anything to get the terrorists or prevent another attack.
Obama gets in the White House, and all of the sudden those FReepers that were ridiculed or attacked in 2001/2002 are now seen as prophets.

I trusted Bush. I did not trust any government with the power that the Patriot Act gave government be it Bush or Obama. Under Obama the powers of the patriot act have expanded and are now the iron glove of tyranny of government.
I felt the danger of a second 9/11 attack on us was far less dangerous than a government with the powers of the patriot act and the expanded powers of this act under the Obama Administration.
Terrorists can only kill a few thousand of us on a good day. A central government of tyranny can enslave us all and kill us at will. A tyrannical central government is many times more dangerous than any terrorists could dream of being.
