When I went to bed last night I thought I was living in the year 2013. But I woke up this morning, read Drudge, and realized we’re all really living in 1984.

Unfortunately, this government has more tools at its disposal than Orwell ever dreamed possible.

And tragically, about half the people see no problem with revealing all personal information to anyone that wants it.

If this country was still populated by the sort of people who won WWII, Facebook’s stock price, and perhaps that of Google, Yahoo, and their ilk, would drop to zero today, and not ever recover. (I picked Facebook, since Zuckerberg is the single most influential person in the world when it comes to convincing people to “share” all their personal information. What could go wrong?)

Remember when it was illegal to read someone else’s mail without their permission, or mess with their mailbox. I think (?) it still is. Maybe the Post Office is due for a rebound?

Meanwhile, as I type, Big Brother monitors.....

If the GOP can’t figure out how to make hay with this one, we need a third party, and soon.

Huh?

It was the GOP insiders and Bush who concocted the Patriot Act and signed it into law...Many of us recoiled as Bush signed it...

Ya knew damn well it would be used against Americans.

Or did ya?
