"I think on a national level, your department of law there in the White House would look at some of the things that we've been charged with and automatically throw them out," she said.
There is no "Department of Law" at the White House.
To be fair, everything must be Orwellian named so we have the Department of Justice, meaning there is none.
At least she knows how many states there are. Obama once said he had visited 57 states (google it). Obama can sound a lot like Bush when not in front of a teleprompter. Of course you wouldn't know that because the TV won't dare make a joke about him. Free and independent press, indeed.
Who cares about Sarah Palin anyway? It must be fun to degrade anyone who doesn't believe everything you do. We must be back in elementary school.
The cap and trade bill that just passed the house will simply drive all of the industry further to China and the third world where there are scant environmental regulations.
It was really scary watching C-span on Friday where every Democrat talked about how this bill will create jobs and save the planet. That isn't an exaggeration in the least. Then the Republicans would speak and quote from all of the studies showing how it will destroy jobs and our econonmy. Now that the Republicans aren't in power they are allowed to use some sense.
It was very funny how last Tuesday the bill was at 300 pages then on Friday it became up to 1500 pages and then down to 1200 something pages. It was simply impossible for anyone to have read it, let alone comprehend it.
From what I've read of the bill it sounds a lot like the system put in Spain which isn't doing wonders for their economy and also sounds like Agenda 21 of the UN.
Essentially we are screwed. It doesn't matter who you vote for or what ideology you are, unless you're in the big club your face is being stomped on right now.
You may get your wish. In the 1920's and 30's when Eugenics was popular the Supreme Court ruled it was perfectly legal for states to sterilize people, take their kids and sterilize them.
This will probably be proposed as a way to cut costs for the penal and health care system.
NSA effectively controls DHS cyber efforts through detailees, technology insertions, and the proposed move of NPPD and the NCSC to a Fort Meade NSA facility. NSA currently dominates most national cyber efforts. While acknoledging the critical importance of NSA to our intelligence efforts, I believe this is a bad strategy on multiple grounds. The intelligence culture is very different thana network operations or security culture. In addition, the threats to our democratic process are significant if all top level government network security and monitoring are handled by any one organization...
This is really old news because they are simply implementing everything that was proposed months ago. Someone should really edit the summary to include this resignation from months ago because this was precisely what he was warning about. It is very significant.
the biggest loss of freedom with these cameras comes from your pocket. The camers and associated infrastructure costs a lot of money.
The benefits gained from these cameras is essentially minimal or non-existent. Cameras do not prevent crime nor do they do a good job at catching people after the act. London's crime rate hasn't gone down with the many cameras they have.
It is a complete waste of the publics money. If Jack Bauer is so worried about his private property then he should pay for his own cameras and security system.
You mean the ranch Bush bought a few years before he was elected to make him look like an authentic Texan even though he was mostly raised and schooled in Maine and Connecticut?
Privacy for whom? Are you talking about the individual, corporations or government? Transparency for corporations and the government are very important. We don't need laws or regulations to get it we need the people to turn off the TV and start demanding it.
However, designed with the threat of a much more lethal H5N1 bird flu pandemic in mind, the present alert system reflects only the spread of the disease and not its virulence.
They are basically admitting that they are selectively enforcing their definition of a pandemic. Every year a flu virus spreads to many parts of the globe and kills as many if not more people but they don't raise or use pandemic levels.
This appears to be a beta test meant to see how their systems of control work throughtout each country for when a serious pandemic is released.
The WHO claims they are making this level 6 because it is spreading globally and it has nothing to do with the severity. So why don't they do this for any seasonal flu that spreads globally every year?
If you read the legal definitions of what the WHO can do when it is level 6 is very scary. They can take your property, forcibly vaccinate you, quarantine you for an indefinite amount of time all with zero proof of anything.
The few people who have actually died and had swine flu were all very ill before they were infected.
You can also base it on the fact that she has always ruled in favor of giving the government more power and the fact that Obama has been filling the Justice Department with RIAA lawyers (see signature).
Whoever wrote that doesn't know what Communism is, at all. What they are describing is entirely free-market anarchism.
Voluntary associations are a natural consequence of limited central authorities. Tocqueville's Democracy in America describes in great detail the amount of voluntary associations that sprang up in the country's early history.
They fill the voids that government and corporations simply can't fill. Sharing and the building of like-minded communities and organizations are not Communistic or Socialistic in nature, unless they are forced.
I hope the internet can stay like this but it'll be a hard, continuous fight. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance
which challenges students to find and exploit vulnerabilities in software, compromise enemy systems and steal data.
When they work for you, they're "freedom fighters".
When they work for the other guys, they're "terrorists".
You could also say that When they SAY they work for the other guys, they're "terrorists."
This news isn't very surprising considering that the The National Research Council is pushing for the offensive use of âoecyberattackâ against enemies foreign and domestic.
It isn't very hard to imagine that they may commit attacks on our own infrastructure in order to get more power and money. Our government has a proven track record of using false flag attacks (see Operation Ajax or the Northwoods documents) or exaggerating attacks on us (Gulf of Tonkin). This is even more plausible considering there would probably be no loss of life.
I'm not saying this is happening but given knowledge of previous examples it would be best to be skeptical of the governments claims.
Nokia's one billionth phone sold was a Nokia 1100 purchased in Nigeria. (http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/21/nokia-crosses-one-billion-mark/)
Although something tells me that Nigeria isn't neccessarily most prominent market for apple, since price of an iphone is equal to one years salary for an average nigerian.
They seem to have a lot of royalty. Maybe Apple should go after them.

Yup.
I particularly like how we're taxing carbon. Carbon is a dirty word now, despite it never harming anyone.
Unlike the real threat of Di-Hydrogen Monoxide!

Who needs standards to bog down people's gaming experience when we already have Windows Vista?
Or without their request.
The NSA figured that out a long time ago.
While technically correct, operationally it makes zero difference. This is why the Director of the National Cybersecurity Center resigned mid March.

Plagiarism is copying from one source. Research is copying from many.

Before you troll and bash "fundamentalists" with no proof you should read a few books on why education in the US is in the state we now see.
The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America By Charlotte Iserbyt
An Underground History of Education by John Gatto
Or read the Dodd Report to the Reece Committee which investigated Tax Free Foundations in the early 1950's.

The only way to truly stop a pandemic is to stop all travel into your borders unless you have a 100% fullproof system.
It would be a miracle if this sytem caught 1%.
Uh-oh. Unauthorized thoughts detected.
While you are correct you missed the biggest point. You can carry H1N1 or any virus for days without showing any symptom including fever.
That makes these scanners completely worthless. The goal of these must be to program people to get used to ridiculous measures for their "security."

I find it kind of odd that they call it the wave. Maybe its inspiration is from the TV movie of the same name?
Hopefully their motto won't be "strength through community."
