ObamaNet - Government issued Internet ID card required for all Americans The government will be able to track every web site you visit, every keystroke you send, every purchase you make, every blog comment, and every Facebook and Twitter post. The Washington Times is warning that the White House cybersecurity adviser and Commerce Secretary Gary Locke are drawing up "ObamaNet," President Obama's mandate for what amounts to a national ID card for the Internet. President Obama wants to establish passwords for every citizen to centralize your personal information. Instead of logging onto Facebook or one's bank using separate passwords established with each individual company or website, you will be required to use the government-issued password.
According to the Washington Times, here are the problems with "ObamaNet":
The government will be able to track every website you visit and every keystroke you send on your home computer. The government will be able to track every purchase you make and every deposit and withdrawal, and gain access to your electronic health care records. The government will be able to track every blog comment you make, along with every Facebook and Twitter post. The government will be able to create lists of your friends and acquaintances and lists of all your political affiliations, political donations, club memberships, hobbies and interests. It's impossible for the government to make this system 100% secure (remember Wikileaks?) meaning criminals would need to steal only one key to unlock a vast amount of your personal and financial information. Although the White House will tell you it is a voluntary program, the government "voluntary" programs too often end up becoming mandatory. See Web I.D. = more gov't control.

Until now I had just heard rumors about this but did not know how progressed this idea had become untilI I read it from the AFA. I tried to do a search to see if it had already been posted but didn’t find it. But then after I posted I did a bit more searching and I see that many Freepers already have discussed this. I cannot say I’m sorry for a repost since I had never read this article before...maybe others haven’t as well. Just the thought of this makes me think of Hitler, the Nazi’s and the holocaust. Do you really think all of America knows about these Obamanet cards? Do the people who previously voted for Obama approve of this invasion to their liberty, freedom, rights?
Are they brainwashed?
I just read through some of the posts that were already discussed about this topic and found another poster who had the same thought as I do about the absurdity that Obama feels the need to track people’s use on the Internet and yet people do not need ID to vote.
Let us pray for America.
I know the Bible talks about a day that we will not be able to buy or sell unless we take the mark of the beast: Revelation 13 (New King James Version)
Revelation 13
The Beast from the Sea
1 Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns,[b] and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name. 2 Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. 4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?
5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue[c] for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe,[d] tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
The Beast from the Earth
11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 14 And he deceives those[e] who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. 15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or[f] the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

“Let us pray for America”
Let us FIGHT for America.
I am not that worried about this. The government and computers do not mix. And technology is moving too fast for them to keep up. But they will try to do it and will still be working on it 20 years from now.
oh great - let’s just make it as easy as pie for our identities to be stolen - who dreams this stuff up?

FYI, Howard Dean was pushing this idea back in 2004.
