And now the Republicans are furious about the NSA having everyone’s phone records. Of course this has been going on for years as it is part of the US Patriot act. You remember it, the one the Bush White House and Republicans shoved down our throats in the midst of their paranoia after nine eleven. Actually what the NSA has is only phone numbers (not names), along with other data about the calls, such as where they came from, how long they lasted, what numbers were dialed. Or to put it another way, the same thing the phone companies have always had.
In this day an age of red light cameras, speed cameras and surveillance cameras on almost every street and in most stores in the country, it’s a little late to be upset about your privacy. It is amazing how the Republicans want the Government out of America’s boardrooms but don’t have any problem with them being in your bedroom.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and his wife are divorcing. Putin said that his wife was tired of all the publicity his job called for. His wife Lyudmila said she was tired of being married to an asshole
So a new poll shows that 24% of Americans blame Government Welfare programs for poverty in this country. I wonder what the income level that 24% falls in. You think maybe it is folks who have money and good jobs. Man, those damn poor people are going to ruin the nation.
I don’t understand the mentality of the gun-nuts who want to carry concealed weapons. The concealed part is what I don’t understand. Obviously these people love guns so why don’t they want to strap on a 6-shooter and walk around like the ole west. I get it that the bad guys conceal their guns, they don’t want you to know they have one until they are ready to rob or kill you. If everybody hides their guns, how are we to know who is the bad guy? Also for the gun nuts it would be a two-fold win. They wouldn’t have to unzip their pants to show you how big their dick is.
Stay tuned for future adventures.
