She added, "We can significantly advance security without having a deleterious impact on individual rights in most instances. At the same time, there are situations where trade-offs are inevitable."

BS!
From the very founding of the nation it was understood:
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both. ~Ben Franklin
FUJN! Plug the damn hole! Seal the damn border!
“Big Sis” is just following orders from her Master to take down the primary means of communication for the Tea Partiers and the 9-12/Patriot groups.
You betcha Janet, that will work!
FR has been down all day. Coincidence?
So monitor it. Internet traffic is open-protocol.
But what you are REALLY talking about is SHUTTING IT DOWN TO DISSENT.
I knew a guy, conservative as all get out, former cop, who voted for Kerry and against Bush because of the patriot act. I understand his thinking. Still couldn’t vote for Kerry but.....
ARPA created the Internet to survive a nuclear attack.
It may not survive the treason and politics of the
undocumented, antiAmerican, Obama administration.
Yup, homegrown conservatives need to be shut down. sarc
Yeah, Janet, how about we monitor how close you are to any act affecting our national security, divide that number in feet by the number of stairs you can climb without having a coronary, multiply that quotient by $47, buy you a new outfit at JC Penney, and send you someplace nice where we’ll never have to hear from you again?
Yes...this is a big turd...much bigger than THIS....and we need Congress to give it too us to protect America from home grown terrorist like FR...and Tea Baggers....as a matter of fact we used a prototype on FR on 6-20-10 to test its viability...shut them down most of the day...
Who would trust this Administration?
And to think this ‘woman’ was a governor.
Or, maybe she, like others in the present administration, merely played one on TV.
Fortunately, we know the Left eats its own.
Can you imagine the noise that would have been heard if Bush had proposed such an idea?? They had their panties in a wad over the Patriot Act — and that was monitoring overseas sourced telephone transmissions (as I recall).
The only reason to do this is to interfere with free speech on the internet and to make an end run around the 1st amendment.
Hitler comes in a ugly woman’s face.
Let’s see. Shut down free speech, including of course, the internet, name anyone opposing Obama and pals as seditionists and homegrown terrorists. Fascism redux forced upon Americans, most of whom can’t figure out what the heck’s going on. They only know Obama didn’t fill their gas tanks and pay their mortgages, that he’s a pathological liar, that the MSM connived and colluded to get him into the WH, and up until now has worked to keep him there. They’re mad about the oil gusher in the Gulf, and with Obama talking about doubling gas prices and his hope: ‘clean energy’(which we won’t achieve until the govt. gets out of the way, thank you,) they’re beginning to loathe Obama.
November elections will be catastrophic for democrats unless McCain/Rino idiocies rule the republicans. That’s if Obama doesn’t allow some Muslim to blow up NYCity or Denver, so he can declare martial law and postpone elections ‘indefinitely’.
One more matter. If Obama and progressives/liberals achieve their dream of shutting America down, no more oil, no more street lights, air conditioning, cars, heating, etc., does he seriously think the rest of the world will follow suit? And if they did, what would happen to the Arabs’ (Saudi’s), sea of oil with no customers? What would they sell? Sand? Flying carpets? Obama is a Muslim, and he won’t be happy until America or what’s left of her is ruled by Islam. And his communist mentors don’t care how many millions of Americans have to die in the process. Literally. Reeducation camps and if you don’t convert to communism and Islam, you’re dead. They figure about 35 million will have to be ‘eliminated’, and they talk about it as if they’re swatting flies.
Security is not even a passing thought to her.
As Dino Media dies , so will the DNC.
They must control the sources of news or cease to exist soon.
We all know who they consider the real terrorists. These communists must be stopped.

Like this isn’t happening already.
I gather the “need” is really the veil for political persecution of Liberty advocates.
