Things to watch for during a “Declared National Emergency”

Funny, there were several news articles including the Miami Herald, the Enguirer of South Caroling and others that carried this story and now.... why the story is no longer available or 404.

But here are a few:

Count me in.
I’ve had that feeling for a loooong time.

To some extent I’ve been convinced I’m paranoid, but the feeling won’t go away.

I’m getting a “page not found” on your initial thread link. Can I have a viable link? Thanks :)

There are legions of us who feel as you do. I just hope we are not silenced.

Hey, if there is a national epidemic emergency, I suppose that large gatherings, such as Tea Party-style protests against Obamacare, which he has vowed to sign by the end of the year, become unlawful....

For suspected terrorists/associates = yes.

What are you talking about ?

I'm talking about the project developed by Admiral Poindexter for Bush originally called Total Information Awareness (TIA) and eventually the Information Awareness Office that was going to cover all Americans. Parts of it are still around even after Conservatives came out against it and Congress de-funded most of it.

There were plenty of threads on freep about it, you can still find them if you want to look - go back to around late 2002 or early 2003.

I think the thing that bugged freepers the most was the Extraction of Evidence and Link Discovery, I think that's what it was called, that would look at all Americans' bank records, travel records, communications - both phone and internet (and some was based on the Clinton administration's carnivore stuff), etc., and would try to build links between everybody as well as a profile of all Americans.

As many Conservatives and the NRA pointed out, it could help an anti-gun administration generate a huge database of profiles of all American gun owners, what they buy that's gun-related, where they travel, how often they are active in gun-related activities, etc.

I can't imagine what Obama would use it for if Bush had gotten his way and kept the whole thing together instead of Congress coming down on him. It's worrisome to think about the parts that are still active.

And you’re opining that Pres. Bush’s fight
... and yes, with the anti-American, terrorist
loving Congress, it was and IS a fight .. to
keep us safe (AS HE DID FOR NEARLY 8
YEARS) and monitor suspected terroris chatter/
email/phone traffic and financial transactions
was somehow scandalous and evil?

This is the link .. appears they changed it.

I excerpted the EO’s from the article.

If he was actually worried about our safety, he would have secured our southern border instead of dragging his feet and only giving us a partial solution. He also wouldn't have called the men and women who volunteered to help on the border "vigilantes".

As for TIA/IAO, do you honestly trust the liberals with such power? Would you feel comfortable if they had a system at hand that data-mined everything you and I did and built up a profile on us showing who we talked to, where we traveled, what we bought, etc?

The NRA and many of us saw the inherent danger in such a system and how it could be abused by the liberals. It's a shame you don't see that. Terrorists can kill us, of that there is no doubt, but they can't destroy our country. Liberals with too much political power on the other hand, can destroy our country.
