More Claims From NSA Whistleblower Russell Tice
eldavojohn writes "Russell Tice, former NSA employee & whistleblower, has revealed yet more details claiming that wiretapping was combined with credit card data to target civilians. He also suggests the CEOs of major companies hold the truth: 'To get at what's really going on here, the CEOs of these telecom companies, and also of the banking and credit card companies, and any other company where you have big databases, those are the people you have to haul in to Congress and tell them you better tell the truth.' Will Congress follow his suggestions?"
This adds to information revealed by Tice last week that the wiretaps targeted journalists in particular.
Come on Dave, where's the long screed defending the Bushies?
He needs to use his awesome power to send new teachers to the school in which you were educated. Then, you wouldn't type things like "in toto, has a LOT of jobs at his disposale".

Idiots for Obama
A gaffe is when you say there are 57 states in the union instead of 50. Although, I do recall he stopped to think about it before he said it.
And I guess "progressives" know all about reiterating baseless assertions ad infinitum. they've had 8 years of practice.
When Fascism comes to America, it will call itself Anti-Fascism, and tell you to give up your guns.
If you post comments on sites like Indymedia debunking their paranoid worldview they allways get removed by a moderator. Conspiracy theorists are in practice much keener on censorship than the governments they rant against.
What's ironic about this is that it shows what a threat to a free society these people are. Now this sounds like a conspiracy theory in itself on the surface but consider. Marx had a very conspiratorial view of democracy, he claimed that it was manipulated by the bourgeoisie, hence the term 'bourgeois liberalism'. When Marxists came to power in Russia that gave them a theoretical justification for repressing the whole bourgeois class. Similarly Hitler thought that society was manipulated by the Jews and thus tried to wipe them out when he was in power.
Cliques of people that all believe in some powerful group manipulating society will always go after that group once they are in power.
Of course at the moment the conspiracy theorists are divided and are marginalised politically because most people simply laugh at them, but I'd say the government is right to be keeping tabs on them to make sure they stay that way.

Spoken like a true left wing snob.
I guess you must be one of those with half a brain since you saw right through it eh?
If you engage the other half of your brain and follow the thread you will notice that to start with, all I did was express an irreverant opinon of Barry that did in fact answer the question posed. From there is was just a bunch of spittle from folks who thought entirely too much of themselves.
I guess Barry is sacrosanct on Slashdot. Too bad. I was hoping I could throw out a bunch of posts that merely said "Fuck Barry" and I would get modded Insightful.
You guys need to lighten up. You have 4 years fun filled years to go! If this is how you react just a few days into Barry's term, you'll all be dead of strokes and heart attacks soon.
