Crossing the Yalu

Police State Culture                   


In a secret government agreement granted without approval or debate from lawmakers, the U.S. attorney general recently gave the National Counterterrorism Center sweeping new powers to store dossiers on U.S. citizens, even if they are not suspected of a crime, according to a news report.

The changes granted by Holder would also allow databases containing information about U.S. citizens to be shared with foreign governments for their own analysis.

A former senior White House official told the Journal that the new changes were “breathtaking in scope.”

But counterterrorism officials tried to downplay the move by telling the Journal that the changes come with strict guidelines about how the data can be used.[Full]

"Innocent Americans" to Holder and his ilk are everyone not voting (at least once per cycle)  for Obama. That is neither an attempt at humor, nor an overstatement. When the President of the United States uses the Executive Order to impose gun controls, you know government have crossed the Yalu River.  It's "anything goes" with this lot.

Flood them with FOIA requests, asking to see what info they have on you.

Good idea, storing your i-Pod with the headphones like that. Then they don't get separated.
