Republican Senator Judd Gregg was Obamas first choice for the Secretary of Commerce post, and Gregg was actually considering joining the Obama team, until he found out that control of the US Census was being stripped from the Commerce Department and placed under the direct control of White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel.
Then, the same week that Americans learned that they were domestic terrorists -- at least according to Obamas new DHS (Department of Homeland Security), -- if they own a bible, a pocket Constitution or guns, and still believe in Life, Liberty and Freedom, - they also learned that Obamas Census Bureau had hired thousands of new temporary employees, equipped each with a handheld GPS computer and sent them out to mark GPS coordinates for every residential front door in America.
Oddly, it was this same period that news was breaking of an international flu pandemic, suspected of being a weaponized strain of the virus never before seen, - and that Obamas team still sees no need to close the US-Mexican border, despite the cross continental spread of a deadly illness now claiming American lives.
Now, if any one of these events happened alone, one might not get too excited. But when a string of such events happen all at once, one begins to question the string of freedom and life threatening coincidences...
I cant resist the urge to question the authority and purpose behind such a BIG BROTHER initiative, when the official Census itself is not due to be taken until 2010...
No imagination is required to think up a whole laundry list of evil that could be done with a nationwide GPS grid of coordinates markers painted on every private home across the country. But I was having trouble thinking up one good reason for it, even one legitimate use that would justify what must be a very expensive undertaking.
According to one of the Census workers, who spoke with me on condition of anonymity, they must GPS mark the coordinates within 40 ft of every front door in America and they are supposed to complete that mission nation wide, within 90 days, by the end of July 2009.
The workers were not told why they were GPS marking every front door. But a supervisor is sent out to follow them door-to-door, to make certain that no door is left unmarked. Every door will be marked by one employee, and then checked by a follow-up supervisor.
So, I had to ask, why?
Why does the Obama administration need or want the latitude and longitude coordinates for every home in America ? Why the rush to GPS paint every home in the next 90 days? Why must the marker be within 40 ft of every front door? For what possible purpose does the Fed need GPS coordinates for every home, and under what authority do they have the right? Census workers, whom I asked, had the same holy-crap look on their faces that I had by then...
Does this mean if we give the wrong answer, vote the wrong way, show up on the “extremist” lists, etc, all they need to do is switch our address to “off” on the utility grid???
(removing tin foil hat now)
We had a lady come to our door waayyyy out here in the boonies.
I dont get non appt. visitors other than the UPS man so I was taken back by her.
I automatically asked her if she worked for ACORN.
She looked puzzled and asked what ACORN was...I responded a group known to work for Obama.
Oh no she says I am official, United States census dept and so I asked to get a closer look at her ID.
Yep US Census with her name too.
I apologized for being so tart and she said no worry she already had our address in he lil hand held electronic deal and we would be getting mail to fill out the census.
She also remarked about what a job it was to find every house in the rain forrest up here.
I’ve got some bad news for you, sunshine. They’re not going to “leave” a physical device, they just need to stand there long enough to record a fix, and associate it with a street address. Then, you are in the play.
Just find an old dirt road in a mountainous area and hide in a cleft, like Moses did...
It’s precise and exact, I guess, but there is yet NOT a legitimate “need” for government to have that sort of precise targeting information. Thanks for playing, though. Johnny, tell Straight Vermonter what going away prizes we have.
“Well, DC, we have a nice, laser-targeted ALCM we can deliver RIGHT to ST’s house, since it’s in our database now. Or a visit from one of our pleasant FedGov Goonsquads tomorrow morning at about 0200. Thanks, ST. I guess we’ll give you BOTH going away gifts.”
I'm not particularly fond of thinking the government has these maps either, but attacking the temp workers who will never see or use any of your information is just silly. The law states that no personal information can be released from census data for 72 years. Check, the newest census data with names you can get for research is 1930. Only the most general information will be released in statistical formats. You can bet those who are ACORN will make sure everyone in inner city neighborhoods get counted to affect redistricting, thus you need to make sure you are counted to offset that. I was only today looking at the 1870 census and found my family. Someday your family may be looking for you too. Sorry this is so long, but there is too much misinformation and hysteria on this thread to not speak up.
You got that right.
You may NOT be raptured pre-trib. You could be raptured pre-wrath and have to go through a lot of this stuff. Nobody knows 100 percent for sure. Be prepared.
Sound advice.
I can see it now. A nice middle class, recently prosperous factory owner, Chinese family sitting down to lunch has the real estate channel on, looking at our houses, deciding where they’ll emigrate to, and that’s next.
In WV, I see no ACORN. It is housewives, and others wanting a quick buck. I doubt they are involved in anywhere but urban.
The GPS/handheldcomputer stuff is GW Bush's fault! Zero is probably going to use it in the end, but it was planned long before he came into the scene.
The GPS/handheldcomputer equipment is crap, and will not be used in the general census. I know from personal experience. They will use paper, again!!!
They will not allow us to even show the information on the HHC to anybody not in the USCensus program. PRIVACY? They are using Windoze Mobile...!
I ain't yer sunshine, sunshine.
And I am well aware of how it works. I've used the technology a time or two.
I now live in the middle of a 50 acre fenced "compound".
Unless they break through a locked 4-bar gate and/or climb a 6 strand barbed-wire fence and somehow manage to get past my motion detectors and driveway alerts, they ain't getting within 40 feet of my house.
And if they do all that, then they have to contend with Jack and Jill, two of the ugliest Great Pyrenees/Rottweiler cross brother and sister nasty dogs alive, both of which are totally devoted to me and will literally eat you if I give them permission to do so.
Nobody, and I do mean nobody, comes to see me unless I want them to come see me.
And yes, every thing is well marked and warnings are posted all over.
They can stand on the damn road and map all they want to.
But they don't get in to Hacienda OldSmaj unless I want them to or unless they have a valid warrant.
Which ain't gonna happen 'cause I ain't broke no laws, lately.
At least that they know about.
Kinda off topic, but we just bought a Tom Tom nav device a few days ago, in anticipation of a cross-country driving trip. Amazing stuff. It's got our house pegged to within a few feet.
No insult intended, and congrats on your security. Us city bound fools that shoot back will simply be burned down, a la Waco style.
This is how I feel. They have no right to come onto private property period and if they do, they need to bring the proper paperwork, wait politely while I call my lawyer, law enforcement, my pastor, God and anybody else I might be needing. I keep in mind now, the vision of a real American, standing in the road with his musket and a few buddies while a British regiment or any army, as red as the eye can see comes at them. The buck stops here.
Where is the “if you’re not doing anything wrong” crowd?
Maybe they were caught doing something wrong.
lol.
YES, I know, however, we need ATTORNEYS/Politicos willing to bring suits (somewhat frivilous if necessary) against this...and I ain’t no Attorney/Politico!!! WE are the power, and WE have to act together.
