The NSA Files

EXTRY! EXTRY! READ IT HERE! NSA DOUCUMENTS PUBLISHED BY THE GUARDIAN

Dated June 20:

Document 1: Procedures used by NSA to target non-US persons
Document 2: Procedures used by NSA to minimize data collection from US persons

OK, I feel like being a stinker and playing Daniel Ellsberg today. Whatever you think of this stuff, you have a right to know what your government knows about you and what it is doing with that information.

1. So, it seems the Guardian was again embellishing the horror of all this

as if the NSA could just monitor people on their own without clearance if they deemed it worthy. Another lie. As it clearly states, if one is determined to be suspect, and there's no time to get clearance to keep that trace on, they STILL have to notify everyone immediately, including the courts. That's just common freakin' sense.

3. Without the need to reason it becomes easy to give information to others which may support one's

position, use half of a sentence, edit a recording or whatever but the truth lies in the complete truthful information. The "cause" never has been about being truthful but attempting to incite those easy to convince their untruth. They need to return to their sites and run their lies where they will be appreciated by their readers. It is unthinkable the NSA has the personnel to listen to all the calls placed everyday in the US, think about how many calls are placed, do you think there are enough ears to hear and record all this information.
Now let us get back to reality. When you dine with buzzards you can't be soaring with eagle, I will remain an eagle.
