As their control of Dino era news dissemination slips, they must get control of the internet.

When Janet Reno/Clinton first proposed the Patriot Act, most Dems supported it, most GOP opposed it. When Bush proposed the Patriot Act which was 95% the same, many in both parties suddenly flip-flopped. Now are they to again flip-flop?

But there are a few who are consistent on the issue, regardless of who is in power. Essentially, the executive branch inherently seeks to grab more power away from the states and local government, and away from the people. Exceptions exist, but are rare.

One simple reason is that members of the executive branch are lazy yet seek more money. That leads them to say that a big government program that watches everyone makes it easier to catch the truly bad guy. But in reality, it just creates a lot of useless noise in the data that impedes analysis of the data.

I work with large databases for big business and find the situation almost as bad there. They collect such massive amounts of data that the sheer quantity impedes useful analysis. Theoretically it does not have to be that way. Software could filter out most of the useless noise. But in most places I’ve consulted, the executive branch resists the filtering out of the noise.

As terrorists increasingly recruit U.S. citizens, the government needs to constantly balance Americans' civil rights and privacy with the need to keep people safe, said Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.

The government says they cannot control our borders as millions enter illegally, along with 2000 tons of dope and God knows what else every year....Then tell us they're going to keep us safe even if it means losing our freedom?

This makes absolutely no sense.

Terrorists??? What Terrorists?

Oh yeah, I remember. That DHS bulletin sent out targeting everyone and everything that wasn’t a card carrying communist.

The DHS must and will be dismantled. There is no place in a free society for such a draconian entity. We need to get rid of this administration post haste.

REMEMBER NOVEMBER!!! I just hope it won’t be too late.

Fat, dumb and bull-dyke is no way to go thru life, Janet.

""Napolitano says keeping America safe may require civil liberty, privacy trade-offs""

Meyer says that keeping Americans safe from government may require judicious use of the second amendment.

This is what you get when you put an attorney in charge of security. Only a fellow lawyer like Obama would think that was smart.
