WH defends, says ‘critical tool’ against terrorist threats…
Specifically targeted Americans, not foreigners…
DHS: Laptops, phones can be searched based on hunches…
FBI ‘WANTS BACK DOOR TO ALL SOFTWARE’…
ALGORE: ‘Obscenely outrageous?’
Simple Question, how good did it work against the Islamic terrorist who blew up the Boston Marathon?
And what good was it to give the assault weapons to the Mexican drug cartels and who knows whoever else we gave them with Obama’s fast and furious?
Looks like nothing works does it? Except stealing our freedoms …
Big Government in action … Tyranny.
The White House on Thursday defended the National Security Agency’s need to collect telephone records of U.S. citizens, calling such information “a critical tool in protecting the nation from terrorist threats.”
While defending the practice, a senior Obama administration official did not confirm a newspaper report that the NSA has been collecting the telephone records of millions of U.S. customers of Verizon under a top secret court order.
The order was granted by the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court on April 25 and is good until July 19, Britain’s Guardian newspaper reported Wednesday. The order requires Verizon, one of the nation’s largest telecommunications companies, on an “ongoing, daily basis” to give the NSA information on all telephone calls in its systems, both within the U.S. and between the U.S. and other countries.
Why does it always lead to tyranny? Ask yourself…
