FBI begins recording call-ins (talk radio)
wnd ^ | October 14, 2011 | Kathy Shaidle

Next time you call a talk radio station, beware: The FBI may be listening.

According to WMAL.com, "The FBI has awarded a $524,927 contract to a Virginia company to record as much radio news and talk programming as it can find on the Internet. …

The FBI says it is not playing Big Brother by policing the airwaves, but rather seeking access to what airs as potential evidence." The agency's reasons for recording all these radio programs don't get any clearer as the news report goes on. No doubt that is intentional.

Scaring people so they won’t call. They want to shut us up. Now, are you afraid you’ll misspeak?

Maybe you won’t feel like you can express yourself unless of course you’re a Bill Ayers type.

While most Presidents of the last few decades have become tyrants, this one takes the cake. I try to be intellectually honest after the last President did all kinds of things I disagreed with, but Obama and his minions are beyond the pale. Every week there is a new outrage.

To the best of my acknowledgment, Nixon had a 'list of enemies' and spied on them. OMG! a list of enemies!

They managed to take him out because of this. Why that was the most terrible thing in the world. I also think that Nixon had a system put in that recorded every word said for transparency.

How does this compare with what's going on in the WH today?

Hey lets make sure we make a fair comparison between Nixon and 0bama.

Nixon turned over the tapes of his correspondence and conversations regarding Watergate - 0bama has formally defied calls (stating he will not comply) for his BlackBerry email that implicates him with the Solyndra fleecing of $500 Million.

At least Nixon had some basic respect for the Rule of Law, this POS 0bama is taking us down a completely different path.

I just wanted to set the record strait about comparing the two...

There is always the option to use Tor to connect. If one were to do that and threaten the president for instance, there is no way the FBI, JimRob or anyone else would know the identity of the poster.

Of course the flipside to that is most probably a ban/suspension.

Lemme know when they start tracking down the full names and addresses of all the people who send “Letters to the Editor” to the NT Times and WaPo.

(I won’t hold my breath).

Apparently, the FBI is now the Polit Bureau.

I guess when I call into a radio show a yell “baba-Booey,baba-booey’, the FBI will freak out.

Oh Well...

Think “Echelon”.

Echelon doesn’t record voice, it records thoughts ...

Maybe they should be recording Mosque sermons instead.

Good Point, I guess it depends on who this administration is protecting.

You know damn well they have a list by now. This administration is what America has always dreaded and they (and partners) play for keeps.

‘From within”—much easier that way.

The next time I call in to Rush or any other program, I will just say hello to them. Hello Rush! Hello FBI informants!... just to let them know, that I’m aware. That should piss em off to no end.

I’m a little stuned. I figured the Feds had been doing this routinely for years.
