Part I of II : NY Times writes: ". . . [this] administration has now lost all credibility . . . .." See what they are talking about and know that when Obama's incestral friends turn on him, he is in serious political trouble.

<<<<  I have never printed pictures of the Obama's such as this.  Today is a first for this blog  -  but it captures what the pretender really is.  He is arrogant in his sense of self confidence and totalitarian in his determination to "change America."  He is to be feared.  

Update: this spy scam now includes our credit card purchases,  our mobile phones,  pictures on our Facebook . . . virtually all our communications

From the Editorial Board at the New York Times,  we have this scathing summary of the Obama’s Administration and its quest to control not only the news of the day (which it has failed to do) but the communications of average American citizens,  folks who are admittedly under no criminal or terror suspicions of any kind.  Obama has been spying on “us” from the very beginning.  And now,  this scam on the American people is blowing up in his face,  and who is defending this nonsense?  Why, the RINO population of the GOP along with the radicalized collectivists in the Democrat Party,  that’s who.  Here is a rather long excerpt from the NYTimes editorial.  You will want to read the full publication. Understand that when the NY Times turns on a politician after befriending him in the most incestral of ways,  well,  let’s just say,  “These are troubling times within the Kingdom.”   Understand that while this sort of thing has been going on since the early days of Bush,  such surveillance was limited to terror suspects.  Obama as per his M.O.,  has taken the law and turned it into a monster for his own purposes.  Big Brother is here and in the person of B Hussein Obama.  Anything highlighted in red comes from this blog's editor.  


The administration has now lost all credibility. [Note: the Times has added "on this issue" since first publishing its criticism of Obama - blog editor]   Mr. Obama is proving the truism that the executive branch will use any power it is given and very likely abuse it. That is one reason we have long argued that the Patriot Act, enacted in the heat of fear after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks by members of Congress who mostly had not even read it, was reckless in its assignment of unnecessary and overbroad surveillance powers.  

Based on an article in The Guardian published Wednesday night, we now know that the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Security Agency used the Patriot Act to obtain a secret warrant to compel Verizon’s business services division to turn over data on every single call that went through its system. We know that this particular order was a routine extension of surveillance that has been going on for years, and it seems very likely that it extends beyond Verizon’s business division. There is every reason to believe the federal government has been collecting every bit of information about every American’s phone calls except the words actually exchanged in those calls.

Articles in The Washington Post and The Guardian described a process by which the N.S.A. is also able to capture Internet communications directly from the servers of nine leading American companies. The articles raised questions about whether the N.S.A. separated foreign communications from domestic ones.

That is a vital goal, but how is it served by collecting everyone’s call data? The government can easily collect phone records (including the actual content of those calls) on “known or suspected terrorists” without logging every call made. In fact, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act was expanded in 2008 for that very purpose.

Essentially, the administration is saying that without any individual suspicion of wrongdoing, the government is allowed to know whom Americans are calling every time they make a phone call, for how long they talk and from where.

This sort of tracking can reveal a lot of personal and intimate information about an individual. To casually permit this surveillance — with the American public having no idea that the executive branch is now exercising this power — fundamentally shifts power between the individual and the state, and it repudiates constitutional principles governing search, seizure and privacy. . . . . .  and there is more, here.

From the Washington Times,  Sept 14,2011:   Be careful, if you dare to criticize Citizen Obama, comrade. The Web is watching. This week, President Obama’s re-election team launched “Attack Watch,” an interactive website that allows the president’s registered supporters to report instances of “attacks” against the commander in chief or his record. Citizen snitches are asked to detail who the attacker is, the type of attack, and whether the offending words were actually heard or passed along as second-hand rumors.
