Obviously not the OP but I would give a definite yes to the second question, esp. considering what qualifies as a "terrorist" these days. Let's take the Boston Bombers and make a low balling guess that each one of them has ca

So far fact is that the NSA denied listening to U.S. phone calls without warrants. Now we know that the Obama administration and NSA intentionally lied and mislead the public. I am certain that with a little bit of luck we will find out how

HK was a brilliant idea! Just look at how the pirate bay guy was deported from Cambodia to Sweden. You need someone really ballsy to stand up to the U.S.. If you don't want to end up in some 3rd world clusterfuck (e.g. North Korea, Ven

My question: Is there actually anybody prepping talking points for pundits who oppose these pro-government spying ideas? I suppose there are already few think-tanks working on opposing ends, but these tend to be "slightly" partisa

But don't you see that this "oh, it was some low level employee - how could he know" strategy is getting abused over and over again. Sure, it gives those who want to see innocence the ability to believe in some hypothetical &

Great work, I remember the TSA scanner story! Just a thought: Maybe you could change the buttons to look less 2000'ish. That might give off a bit of an odd vibe ;)

Politics is not about reasonable arguments. It is about building momentum for a cause. Both, the harassment of political opponents by the IRS as well as the NSA spy policies were run under President Obama's leadership. He is as persona

That is pretty much the agenda. Once the terrorism narrative turns fully into a joke and people don't take it serious anymore the narrative for China as the new enemy must be in place. But so long we play along. You can hear already he
