It seems that the transparency that Obama was talking about, we misunderstood.
The administration is now going to try to get legislation through congress that will make it easier for them to wiretap into your life. They were not talking about transparency in both ways, but a one way mirror!!!
The argument is that its too hard to wiretap cell phones so we need more legislation to force AT&T and Verizon, etc, etc to make it easier for the government to listen in to your conversations. If they want to listen in to us, I don't think we should be told to make it easy. I think that is a violation of the protection that we have not to be forced to testify against ourselves.
So when touting transparency leading up to the election, they were not talking about letting you know what they were doing, they were talking about wanting it to be easier for them to look into your bedroom window to see what you were doing. Now I understand.
Next they will want me to video tape it and send them the tapes...so they can leak them to NPR...maybe...
