As Obama strived to reassure the American people following startling revelations this week about top-secret federal data-mining and surveillance programs, he said that he, too, has long been torn on the issue and that there is no easy answer.
“You can’t have 100 percent security and also then have 100 percent privacy and zero inconvenience,” he said. “We’re going to have to make some choices as a society.”
Here's how it works in post-9/11 America:
"As your leader, I think that we as a society need to--"
"--Shut up, stupid. Your job is to execute instructions, not to hazard to get a thought into your head. You complete pieces of trash can't even catch the bad men who flew Rabbi Zakheim's lend-lease tanker drones into the Twin Towers and then they blowed right up and fell right down. So either you're in on the crime, or you're simply too stupid to catch the bad men, or you're simply too weak to catch the bad men. Which is it? 'Hi. I'm a government employee. Please be advised to take my words in the knowledge that I am stupid, criminal, and weak.' "
It's like hiring a yard care person who can't manage to trim the grass without trampling the flower beds. That assemblage of trash styling itself a jurisdiction can't even catch the bad men without completely trampling the crown jewels of American society, one's natural rights.
In the future, at no time will some completely useless civil servant have the ability to surveille ANYTHING without a warrant, unanimously assented to by a panel of three: a judge, a housewife, and an ex-con.
And why the tears? You're too fuckin' stupid to get the right guys anyway.
