You do it then..

If you want your full privacy and freedoms taken away.. give them up then. For the rest of us.. get the hell out of our homes.

If you have nothing to hide like you say, then go to the police station.. let them ransack your home.. bug your phone line, monitor your emails.. and see how much you like it.. I bet you would change your tune.

The Breaking Point
by gentlewarrior13 July 11, 2006 3:40 AM PDT
Just like leaders in religion use fear and guilt to keep their population down, this same tactic is being used by our leadership. A few things to consider are these elements: Once Iraq, Syria and Iran are completed (On their way to democracization) N. Korea will likely become the next target. We've democracized W Europe, E Europe, Japan, Much of the middle east and besides the tribal issues in Africa and the little countries once N. Korea is complete the final frontier shall await us; CHina. WHat shall happen who knows but I do know that from the articles I have been writing people are constantly writing me back suggesting that it appears that we're moving to a Democracy/Communism Society... Comocracy or Demunism perhaps?

Now, with China rolling over and the final frontier complete there are two things that can happen from there, #1 - the NWO that everyones whining about will actually come into affect or #2 - There will be much less war, and a peaceful planet that can focus on the true needs of the people and planet.

This country, and the world for the most part, are breaking down. The launch of the internet and the push into real-tv has created an environment that; A. Produces a knowledge is power people, and B. Makes people long for the reality of the truth in matters. We are NOT accustom to these elements.

The country, in large part, is filled with a population that lies, gossips, is addicted, lustful, greedy and such a far cry from what ANY sacred text is about it is finally time for this breakdown to occur. I think that if a masss breakdown ocurs and shortly after we find most the world democracized or "Diverse people, with many differing religions living in the same place in peace", the bloated, hidden agenda type, greedy nasty leaders and policy's will be shattered and replaced by leaders of dignity, truth, trust, actions and accountability that will run the country and poise the world into a position where great things may coe about. For instance, imagine when there's no more threat of war, imagine the beuracracy cut down, No defense budget, red tap gone and all, then is when we will see the humans capability - this country alone could feed the entire world 10 times over, we could switch to ethanol in 1 year, we could sustain a world population of fun, food, love and more if we wanted to. It's either this, or watch the middle class desolve, the rich get very rich, and the poor grow to staggering masses.

Still, even if we go in the negative direction I hope to god all you guys are reasy to stand up for the rights and freedoms we all once so much cherished, I know damn well straight that I will and at ALL COSTS. I didnt go off to wars to fight to come back and find that i've been stripped of what I foiught for other people to have. The true turning point I suspect will be around 2012. Prepare baby, it's inevitable that a break down and re-build is coming.

So Much for Your Right to Know What Your Government is Doing
by Sol999 July 11, 2006 6:52 AM PDT
Your tax money at work...

"The Defense Department is sending St. Mary?s University School of Law $1 million to help fight terrorism by studying ways to limit the scope of the Freedom of Information Act, a landmark open government law that celebrated its 40th anniversary Tuesday."

Not the people's government
by mise777 July 11, 2006 9:21 PM PDT
A government which operates in such secrecy and spin that informed voting choices become difficult or impossible for the citizenry is in no way a government of the people, by the people, or for the people. But then the neoconservative movement has every intention of doing away with that quaint anachronistic idea, doesn't it?

TERROR-FYING!

Did you idiots who voted Republican in 2000 and 2004 realize you were voting in an evermore secret government and voting out your rights as an American? What's next? Either a total right-wing rewrite of the Constitution or simply abandoning it altogether? This country is scaring me!

Libs do love their slogans...

Hey Sol999,

So far I have seen you use plenty of slogans and post links to other people's works. But can you actually make your own argument? Merely citing an author and telling someone to read it does not count. Grace us with some of your own wisdom, if you have any, instead of giving us sound-bites that were spoon-fed to you by others. Or is making fun of my spelling mistake and calling me a "fascist boot licker" the best you can do?

Why are they still there?
by sparky40sw July 13, 2006 1:03 PM PDT
the answer is that the other so'called political party in the US is even more bankrupt - they do not even make a pretense of respecting the limits on government power delineated in the Bill of Rights.

There are not currently any viable alternatives to vote for - although i alwys vote for the Libertarians.

The vast majority of the sheeple in the US would not recognize or agree with the Constitution if it were presented to them in modern english - and that approaches 99% when you talk to government employees - they simply cannot concieve of limits on what THEY want to do.
