STANFORD, Calif. - President Obama is planning to hand the U.S. Commerce Department authority over a forthcoming cybersecurity effort to create an Internet ID for Americans, a White House official said here today.
It's "the absolute perfect spot in the U.S. government" to centralize efforts toward creating an "identity ecosystem" for the Internet, White House Cybersecurity Coordinator Howard Schmidt said.
That news, first reported by CNET, effectively pushes the department to the forefront of the issue, beating out other potential candidates including the National Security Agency and the Department of Homeland Security.

Under OBAMA, if it’s called COMMERCE, it’s anti-commerce. If it’s Homeland Security, it’s anti-defense, etc. IMO, he’s trying to take down e-bay, amazon, et al, or set up a new tax structure for them so he can buy votes with other people’s money.
Obama specializes in bullcrap but w/a purpose in mind. Since it’s his bullcrap, it’s all good.
I believe they’re after e-bay, amazon, etc. If you get Americans afraid to do transactions on the internet, commerce takes a hit. again. He wants to control EVERYTHING and in a big hurry.
I see DU is bitching and whining about this, but these guys need to realize that this is their end goal. Hey guys, government total control, this is it. Stop complaining idiots.
Paid hit????? Back to topic but this is on topic cuz if it was a hit, maybe this is a nudge. Oh, no. Shot point blank range in the head.
Unbelievable but it's in Arizona. BIG SIS, SHOULD BE FIRED ASAP.
My FReeper friends who are there are the only one who comment on this stuff. I hope others are at least reading and thinking about it.
“I know this is just about national security and keeping me safe..”
Where’s the sarc/ tag? But seriously, how do you know?

We ALL KNOW this is so that Obama can target his political enemies easier. It has NOTHING to do with safety. That is just an excuse for the control freaks.
Yeah just as the founding fathers envisioned.
Carbonite anyone? LOL
1. 3 bills that stop the EPA from shutting down the Economy by using the global warming hoax.
2. 1 bill that stops the FCC from censoring and controlling the Internet
3. A bill that repeals the democrats’ government regulations on banks etc.
4 A bill to fully repeal government socialist healtcare that the democrats passed.
5. Repeal of Obama’s czars
6. Many more actions including shutting down a global warming committee etc.
Yet on this site, agreeing with liberals, many will say that Republicans are doing nothing and are just the same as the marxist democrats when Republicans stopped almost all the democrats’ country destroying bills like the Dream act Amnesty the democrats tried to pass almost every day in the Lame duck session. Truly this shows these morons who constantly bash Republicans while not mentioning the real threat which are the democrats, are Lenin's “useful idiots” and puppets of the mainstream media or are democrats.
Hardly any coverage at all about all this even on this site. And the usual puppets of the media that constantly bash Republicans are nowhere on those few threads but instead obsessively are on the threads about what one idiot (Graham) who calls himself a Republican says.
Also , previously , in their only 12 years of a simple majority Republicans cut taxes, appointed 2 Conservative justices to the Supreme Court that have saved freedom, stopped Amnesty , stopped government healthcare and other socialist bills from being even introduced, built up the military ( the media calls that military buildup growing government), etc.
The Nazi SS and the USSR’s KGB would be delighted with Obama’s plan to track everything we do online. It’s an invasion of privacy. It would intimidate most citizens from making political comments online. It would be yet another tool for the Demo Socialists to destroy our freedom.
A couple Democrats already tried to make the accusation...and at least one of Giffords’ family members said the tea partiers were her “enemies.”
I’m afraid that this Loughner’s activities on the internet will give the Obamanoids the pretext they want to crack down on the web.
ping to article and to link info at #33... fyi...
You read my mind, FRiend! I’m with you!
Sometime long ago, JimRob suggested we all exchange phone numbers, just in case something like this happened or, in case FR just vanishes...
It’s so strange that all this is really happening to us.
Thanks for the headsup Jet Jaguar
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
I can smell the excrement a thousand miles away if this camel gets it’s nose under the tent.
