Comments on: The End of Privacy http://www.mediachannel.org/wordpress/2008/01/25/the-end-of-privacy/ As The Media Watches The World, We Watch The Media Tue, 02 Dec 2008 21:04:55 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.5 by: Mike Carlson http://www.mediachannel.org/wordpress/2008/01/25/the-end-of-privacy/#comment-10676 Sat, 02 Feb 2008 17:27:48 +0000 http://www.mediachannel.org/wordpress/2008/01/25/the-end-of-privacy/#comment-10676 I am no longer amazed at the blind criticisms aimed at those who know that the best defense against fascism (islamic or otherwise) is to insure that we do not let fascists scare us into disemboweling our constitution (as fascists did in the Weimar Republic.) The author is another much needed voice in opposition to the scare mongers.

Yes, there are those outside our nation that seek to destroy us but when we are united we have proven how strong we can be time and time again. The real enemy is the people inside our nation who want to rule us, who want to make us into a 2 class world much like that of the nobles and the peasants. Because of their desire for power, money and all the privileges that come with this they are bankrupting us into debt for generations to come, stripping away all the rights that protect us from being ruled as 2nd class citizens and shipping all of our jobs to other parts of the world so that we must compete with people who are making $1 a day in third world sweatshops. You may think I’m a conspiracy nut and I’ve got to tell you, I hope that’s true. I’d much rather be paranoid that right on this one... but let me ask you... If what I’m saying is even just possible, shouldn’t it be stopped? Is it worth the risk? You can absolutely bet the Bush/Cheney/Rove/ team and all their “1st class” friends will take this last year of rule to destroy as much as they can so that we are just a bit weaker and less able to see the truth until it’s too late. I say no more... Let Bush veto! In fact I say, let him have NOTHING more to veto. Pass nothing and let’s ride it out till he’s gone and we can begin to fix all of the damage they’ve caused instead of adding more to the smothering pile.

Yours is the single voice of reason in a bunch of other ignorant replies. I agree with Dr. Weed completely. Yours is the single voice of reason in a bunch of other ignorant replies.

The press barons have insured that their lap dogs don't even growl when another right is sacrificed to the incompetent totally corrupt Homeland Security appraratchiks. Sure the President is an imbecile and his veep psychotic but look at his appointees and wealthy cronies they make the Harding Administration look like choir boys and LBJ look like a priest,even Nixon or Ollie North looks cleaner than the neo con crew (they only lied and dealt arms and drugs.)

To entertain such a notion of nullifying fundamental citizen rights means they are certainly working against the american people. Terrorism by the american government is the only terrorism that exist. It’s incredible to see how our elected officials continue to pass unconstitutional and privacy invading laws.

We've already been spied on by them and for what? What have you or I done to cause them to want to know everything about us? With the intelligence they have at their disposal they certainly don't have to know my personal business. There is no reason for this other than to spy on their own countrymen. How shameful, how unconstitutional, how lawless. This adminstration had a plan as soon as it knew that it would be ‘appointed’. We’ve already been spied on by them and for what?

This administration has secertly been violating our 4th admendment rights and makes no apologies for it. They claim that this is due to the their powers in times of war. America is not at war, we are in an illegal occupation of another country for unknown reasons with no end in sight.

Intelligence is key and we SHOULD KNOW when known terrorists are attempting to make contact to someone in the US. Some of those who are now against our terrorists efforts would be the first to say "why didn't you do something" when a nuke or other WMD hits the US. This does not mean we allow the givernment to do anything, but most of what they suggest to do makes common sense.
