Congress to Investigate ChoicePoint
twzop writes "I just saw a story on the CBS evening news about the previously posted story about ChoicePoint, Inc. in Atlanta, GA getting hacked and US citizens' data being compromised. The story stated that Congress was going to get involved by investigating the scandal and that there was a large class action lawsuit against the private firm."
dan rather sucks!
Third Post - i failed
Sucks to be Choicepoint! But it doesn't suck as hard as poor Michael Sims being shitcanned for being a whiney expat traitor who would gladly rim Michael Moore after a greasy enchilada squirtshit and call it Baked Alaska.
Excelsior!
Are you watching this shitfest on ABC right now?
Anti-American comments about to break out here !!! We all know the USA id the root of all evil in the world. Heck, Amnesty International claims that Iraqi women were better off under Sadaam Hussein and that American soldiers are mass raping them. ((Reality check, please!!!))
So long and thanks for all the fish . . . !!!

hatchetman in an attempted coup of demcratically elected president of venezuela, Hug Chavez:
U.S. Attempting to Fix Venezuela Vote
(Greg Palast, August 10, 2004)
Will The Gang That Fixed Florida Fix the Vote in Caracas this Sunday?
OUR President has decided that THEIR president has to go. This is none too easy given that Chavez is backed by Venezuela's poor. And the US oil industry, joined with local oligarchs, has made sure a vast majority of Venezuelans remain poor. . . . Therefore, Chavez is expected to win this coming Sunday's recall vote. That is, if the elections are free and fair. . . . They won't be. Some months ago, a little birdie faxed to me what appeared to be confidential pages from a contract between John Ashcroft's Justice Department and a company called ChoicePoint, Inc., of Atlanta. The deal is part of the War on Terror.
Justice offered up to $67 million, of our taxpayer money, to ChoicePoint in a no-bid deal, for computer profiles with private information on every citizen of half a dozen nations. The choice of which nation's citizens to spy on caught my eye. While the September 11th highjackers came from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Lebanon and the Arab Emirates, ChoicePoint's menu offered records on Venezuelans, Brazilians, Nicaraguans, Mexicans and Argentines.
The fix that was practiced in Florida, with ChoicePoint's help, deliberate or not, appears to be retooled for Venezuela, then Brazil, Mexico and who knows where else. . . . Here's what it comes down to: The Justice Department averts its gaze from Saudi Arabia but shoplifts voter records in Venezuela. So it's only fair to ask: Is Mr. Bush fighting a war on terror -- or a war on democracy?

eat shiat and bark at the moon
oh snap!
can you email me pics of your tits please
Yeah but from the Bush standpoint...
1.) security starts with Iraq
2.) security can only be established with a Patriot Acts
3.) security begins with the FBI, CIA, NSA, Bush security advisors
Apparently it's ok to favor shipping every other IT job abroad, since IT security folks in corporate america are not part of the security equation.
