Wouldn't it really be something to have papers and other media actually name names? We might actually be able to consider what is said factual if that were to ever happen!
We would also be able to prosecute those folks that out such national security issues!
The other thing is that the story of this kind of testing is not new. There was a story a couple years back that the US had testing equipment that it was carting around to see if they could detect nuclear radiation in various places. Everyone thought it was a good idea then.
I have to say that I'm extremely proud of FReepers. The active intervention by email, snail mail and phone calls to representatives, demanding answers... has made a huge impact on this sort of thing lately. Elections are coming. Let's get 'er done.
I have said all along, Irish Catholic Nuns are the real terrorists! I trully hope the government has not stopped this necessary surveilance program. The Democrats should just declare Islam the national religion and get it over with once and for all.
If the FBI were not checking radiation levels at mosques, I'd want them fired for dereliction of duty.
On public property and monitoring radiation not people. Sounds perfectly legal, but then I'm no lawyer.
Just pretend we're searching for cigarette smoke and the liberals will be fine with it.
ROFLMAO
MSM makes up 'quotes' to fit agenda.
I believe they were or still are called "NEST" teams.
Democrats and Big Media want us to think they no longer want to murder us by the thousands or millions.
what these pukes are trying to say about "privacy" also means that prudent and routine police watchfulness and stakeouts are illegal.......
Something for media beasts and political hacks to chew on:
If there is an act of Islamic-sponsored nuclear terrorism on American soil, especially one that could have been prevented by this kind of surveillance, anyone who was involved in exposing and demonizing this program is likely to end up swinging from the nearest lamppost.
Media pond-scum in particular should remember that earlier example of activist journalism, Herr Julius Streicher. Follow his path, share his fate.
The average American knows we have to do these things.
The left is digging their own political grave opposing and whining about these clearly necessary measures.
They dont know what else to do. They are desperate and glom onto anything that comes along they think that will give them a grip as they slip down the slippery slope of the hole they have dug themselves.
4 years without an attack. As Cheney said, it was no accident. And the average American knows it, and accepts what had to be done to prevent it for this long.
It is nothing that I would not consider unacceptable. If they want to drive up my street and park in front of my house checking for radiation? hell yeah, no problem with that. And most people are going to feel the same way.
Because its about being safe.
Expect more desperation from the left as usual. And lets keep kicking them as they fall down that slope! Keep opposing them. Its working.
Good point!! Yay!!
"Everyone thought it was a good idea then."
Oh, they still think it's a great idea as long as the searches are random and include a diverse and proporational representation of all churches, religions, and creeds.
