General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Isn't it amusing to see all the Obama defenders ignoring the issue of mass surveillance? [View all]graham4anything
(11,464 posts)more so, that President Obama HAS PUT RESTRICTIONS on what Bush did, and President Obama has given the transparency
that was requested
therefore showing it is all legal and that this is NO issue (the majority, big majority) of Americans favor this
I for one am not concerned over this issue. It is a small wedge petty issue.
I am concerned that this issue has become the diversion like was going on in 2000 and spring 2001
that led to the major event-and the major event in 2001 was 9-11
the major event in 2013- is what the US Supreme Court did this week gutting the voting rights acts.
THAT is the important issue.
And poll after poll shows- the American public is united in wanting to be secure and not having another 9-11.
I also find it amusing that people don't acknowledge just how much damage Ralph Nader did in 2000, and still support him today.
DIVERSION is this issue itself is the diversion as America has agreed they do not mind.
But they do mind that the voting rights acts have been dismantled while eyes were diverted
and America is united in knowing that all of this rests in the hands of the legacy of the lie that perpetuated all of this
that both parties are one and the same. That lie by Ralph Nader is of course, why 9-11 happened in the first place.
And why the court decided as they did this week.
