Spies? ...REALLY?

Last Update: July 17, 2010

Statists constantly tell us that we need a huge government to protect us from business monopolies.  What they fail to notice is that The State is the biggest and worst of them all, as well as a major reason why some companies grow so monstrously large.

Just consider the recent economic crisis.  The politicians have raged against the banks, but government bailouts, regulations, and shot-gun mergers, have caused the banking industry to become more concentrated rather than less.  This is the standard operating procedure.  Politicians and bureaucrats constantly speak with a forked tongue...

They claim they're protecting "the little guy" from "the fat cats", when in reality...

The State actually works for the fat cats (though in an unreliable Mafia kind of way)

A huge part of the business of politics involves conferring subsidies and special protections on favored companies and industries, making many of them near (or actual) monopolies that also happen to be "too big to fail."  Now here comes the latest example of monopoly creation by The State.

The so-called Department of Homeland Security (which has proved little to do in securing the Homeland), in cooperation with major corporations like Microsoft, (yeah, Bill Gates never was your friend and never will be), has drafted what they call a "National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace."  (NSTIC)

That sounds ominous, and it is.  Will you be a "trusted entity," or a distrusted one?  The DHS has already made it clear that we are all terrorists living in this Country.  Especially if you have a copy of the Constitution or the Bible in your home.

Of course, the Federal Statists claim that this "strategy" is for your own good.  It's supposed to protect "you" from identity theft, but it also exempts companies like Microsoft from the burden of creating safe products, while laying yet another brick in the wall of an embryonic police state.

We have seen many examples in the past that sugar coat the evil.  Making it sound like it is in the best interest of the People when it is really just taking away more of your rights.  Whether it was the Patriot Act or the Department of Homeland Security.

President Bush and the Republicans started this criminal game of monopoly by passing the REAL ID Act, and by tapping all international U.S. phone and Internet communications without a warrant.  Now President Obama and the Progressives are giving us NO CHANGE in any of these polices.  Instead, they're working hard to make things worse.  This so-called "trusted entities strategy" is the latest example.  And here's more....

The "strategy" was unveiled practically on the eve of our 4th of July (ironic), and the deadline for public comment was set for July 19th.  You were on holiday.  Congress was out of session for half of the comment period as well.  This strikes me as a deliberate attempt to avoid scrutiny.

After that deadline Congress will likely defer to the Department of Homeland Security, because of their supposed expertise, and the wheels of bureaucracy will begin to grind you into assimilation.  Next stop, one Internet password for you, imposed and controlled by The State!  Is this what YOU want?  If not, please act now.  We can do two things that are needed.

FIRST, we need to make our presence felt at the DHS comments page.  Here is the best one that seems to be there so far, under the headline, "NSTIC Should Have a 90 Day Comment Period"....

Your action is simple:  VOTE for the statement I just mentioned for "90 days" and while you are there you can......

A)  "Like" the statement on your Facebook page and/or Tweet it, and if you can, please.....

B)  Consider leaving a firm, but polite remark in the Comments section, beneath the statement, demonstrating your support.

Registration at their site is required, but you can comment anonymously.

The GOAL is to get this comment ranked the highest on the page!  ...by a wide margin!

Right now, the favored companies are stuffing the ballot box, and they may even vote our idea, down, so we need everyone - we need YOU.

SECOND, send Congress a letter opposing the REAL ID Act and the Pass Act, while adding in your personal comments that you also object to this DHS scheme.

e.g.  I also object to the DHS scheme called a "National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace.."  DHS snuck-out this plan right before the July 4th holiday, and then only allowed until the 19th for public comment.  Please represent me by calling the DHS and asking them to extend the comment period to 90 days.  Creating a monopoly identity system for the Internet is a very serious and frightening thing.  While it also ignores the 1st Amendment for the Freedom of Speech.  It deserves serious scrutiny and time for debate.  Please represent me in this matter.

Please forward this information to others and get them to take action too.  July the 19th is Monday!

I'm with all three of you! Matt, I'll vote and tweet too. Pete, wow! This guy has been trying to take us down since he entered office, and we're just sitting here. He's not alone either. It's an infestation of roaches. I'm disgusted.

Control!? More Control!? More Control?! Every 5 minutes I learn something new that Obama Hussein is doing that is socialist and communist!? GET HIM OUT OF HERE! AND FAST! If he stays in, we go down.. He is evil, simple as that.. As long as the government grows, our freedom shrinks, there isn't enough room for both! Make a choice, stand for big government or stand for freedom.. Whether you think so or not, you will have to choose sooner then you probably think..

Resolved, that Barack Hussein Obama, President of the United States, is impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:
Articles of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, against Barack Hussein Obama, President of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors.
Article I
In his conduct while President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has:
Unlawfully exercised the authority of his office to take private property for public use in violation of the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, which guarantees to the People that “private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation,” and without “due process of law”;
Unlawfully interfered with the management of private companies for the purpose of achieving government control of them, in violation of the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution.
Unlawfully interfered with the economic rights of the People by imposing unreasonable impairments in the fulfillment of their intended contractual obligations, and their ability to enter into such contracts, and attempting to change our fundamental economic system, where there is no significant or legitimate public purpose to do so.

In doing this, Barack Hussein Obama has undermined the integrity of his office, has brought disrepute on the Presidency, has betrayed his trust as President, and has acted in a manner subversive of the rule of law and justice, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.
Wherefore, Barack Hussein Obama, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States.
Article II
In his conduct while President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has prevented, obstructed, and impeded the administration of justice, and to that end, through his subordinates and agents, has:
unlawfully engaged in a conspiracy to suppress evidence of the true place of his birth. This obstruction of justice has resulted in a violation of the Constitutional provision that a President of the United States must be a natural born citizen.
Unlawfully refused his assent to the Laws of the United States, and exercised false powers of veto that are contrary to Constitution.

In all of this, Barack Hussein Obama has undermined the integrity of his office, has brought disrepute on the Presidency, has betrayed his trust as President, and has acted in a manner subversive of the rule of law and justice, to the manifest injury of the people of the United States.
Wherefore, Barack Hussein Obama, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust or profit under the United States.

Voted and Tweeted. My my.... The powers that be want control over internet space. This just might be the beginning of a different kind of war - cyber war, where privacy and how we do business and even surf online can be attacked and controlled. Thanks for sharing this.
