The Wall Street Journal ^ | March 2, 2010, 11:00 PM ET | Siobhan Gorman

Posted on 03/05/2010 4:18:39 AM PST by justlittleoleme

The program is designed to look for indicators of cyber attacks by digging into all Internet communications, including the contents of emails, according to the declassified summary.

Homeland Security will then strip out identifying information and pass along data on new threats to NSA. It will also use threat information from NSA to better identify emerging cyber attacks.

And they still managed to blame it on Bush.

Sounds like a ration of crap is being served to the public on this one.

I have a bridge to sell if anyone believe this.

He said addressing potential privacy concerns was one of the ten initial steps he planned to take. “We’re really paying attention, and we get it,” he (Schmidt)said.

I looked over his bio. I think this guy is a straight up guy but is being used by the WH. Once they have this program in place anything that goes wrong will be blamed on Schmidt and he will be stuffed under the bus with all of the other detritus.

Very good movie that seems to be based on today’s reality - very scary MAO-bama big brother.

So they’ll read everyone’s e-mails but they won’t guard the borders.

Incedible...

I was just wondering how email encryption would be handled.

It could become common in email programs, unless Congress outlaws it.

[None of my emails have anything worth encrypting.]

WOW, the shear hypocrisy of the press and Democrats is earth shattering.

Could you imagine if President George Bush proposed monitoring everyone’s email?

But since President Obama’s Home Land Security thought it up, its AWESOME and perfectly legal. No need for any Hollywood movies and Oscars to reward the left for holding ‘truth to power’.

Gee, I wonder why the commie left is especially upset about government snooping...

I'm pretty sure the following was meant to be serious...

Charging the 2000 presidential election was 'rigged', the DUmmies swore they were not going to allow it to happen again in 2004 (Kerry defeated like Al Gore in 2000). Bold-type emphasis added by myself.-ETL

Arming the Left: Is the time now?

Response to Reply #10

16. Yes, spread the word, even if you *didn't* read it, that there *will* be riots! Yes! Riots, and a whole lot more!..."

Democratic Underground blogger ("happyslug": 1000+ posts) responds...

"if it is decided to fight, be prepared to fight, bring a backpack, entrenching tool, tent, and other equipment of an Infantrymen. You will need it for Bush and his supporters decides it is better to fight than to accept the will of the people, the fight to overthrow them will be a long fight."

"...it takes three things to overthrow a tyrant;...

1. Popular support, you must have the majority of the people on your side (i.e. Democracy, even the Communists and Islamics both try to show they have the Support of the Majority of the People),

2. Organization to perform the overthrow (This is why Madison wrote the First like he did, these are HOW you organize an opposition. Without the First it is hard to organize an opposition and any resistence organized in absence of the rights stated in the First tend to be as tyrannical as what you are opposing)

3. Weapons to push the issue if the leadership that is being overthrown tries to use force to stay in power. You have to be willing to answer force with force. Weapons do not overthrow a tyrant, weapons just protect the people who are overthrowing a tyrant."

"Now, you may say "Hay, you are talking about Islamic and/or Communists groups not 'Western Liberal resistence groups'". And you would be correct. As I said in the beginning the first step in a guerilla war against a tyrant is to first organize. The Islamic and Communists Groups were the best at organizing people. "Western Liberal Resistence Groups" were less effective in organizing resistence groups (And less liked by the CIA and KGB who tended to fund these groups, remember any war is expensive, money talks).

Furthermore since most Islamic and Communist groups tend to be the first groups outlawed they tend to go underground first. Once underground they start to organize and as other groups are outlawed those groups tend to join the opposition which tends to be either Islamic or Communistic. Once outlawed these groups also tend to be controlled by the most fanatic opponents of the Tyrants and these tend to be either Islamic or Communistic. Thus to oppose the Tyrants you have to support a side with enough discipline to get the job done and that tend to be Communist or Islamic."

"...Any weapons we resort to must be "real" weapons not pistols. i.e. Rifles and shotguns. Due to concerns of re-supply (you have to plan for a long battle) such weapons should be limited to very small number of different rounds. Generally restrict yourself to the following rounds:

5.56x 45 (.223 Remington) 7.62x 63 (30-06) 7.62x 51 (.308 Winchester or 7.62 NATO) 7.62 x 39 (7.62mm Russian 7.62 AK Round) 12 Gauge Shotgun. 30-30 Winchester."

"You have more weapons in the above calibers than any other calibers thus should be your first choice in weapons. Saying this I must point out I like the 7x57 and 7.92x57 Mauser rounds and the M1898 Mauser Bolt action Rifle, but the 7.92 (sometime called 8mm Mauser) but these rounds are less common than the above and thus harder to obtain when re-supply is needed (and re-supply will be needed if the struggle lasts for any length of time).

Re-supply of Ammunition has always been the bane of any military operations. Without ammunition you can not fight. To get you ammunition, it is easier if we can keep the number of different rounds to a minimum (i.e. 5.56x45 and 7.62x51). I list the 30-06 and 30-30 winchester rounds for these are two VERY popular rounds and ammunition for both are easy to obtain (the same with the 12 Gauge shotgun). I list the 7.62 AK round do to the huge number of SKSs and AKs imported since the fall of the Soviet Union. I list it for while there are probably more 30-30s and 30-06 rifles out they than 7.62 Aks and SKSs, the Aks and SKSs may very while outnumber the rifles in 5.56x45 and 7.62 NATO.

Also, if it is decided to fight, be prepared to fight, bring a backpack, entrenching tool, tent, and other equipment of an Infantrymen. You will need it for Bush and his supporters decides it is better to fight than to accept the will of the people, the fight to overthrow them will be a long fight."

...Disclosed by White House

Anyone else think that if you were trying to protect the Country from threats it might not be a good idea to disclose what you're doing? Just the fact that we have such a program and some rough characteristics of it is valuable intel. That it is far enough along that the top suits feel safe in talking about it tells you something too.

These guys are idiots, they don't understand anything about opsec. obama and his cohorts in crime are babes in the woods. How's that "on the job" training thing looking now America? (or at least, to you naive fools that voted for this {expletive})

You seem to be assuming that Obama and Co actually want to do what's right for America. They are part of the same bunch who have been trying to destroy the United States for decades.

So Janet Incompetano is using this to spy on those who oppose der Fuhrer 0bamao.
