The Liberal's Totalitarian Psychosis - Big Brother Barack

Why do "Liberal-Fascists" start from points of gun control and taxation? Those two items in particular, that our founders understood from their classical education and experience as regal subjects, take basic physical and financial freedoms away from free individuals and make their behavior more determinant. With an unarm citizenry and personal spending and movement determined by taxed behavior, a despot has the tools in place to dictate by ideology and whim rather than administrate by limited consent. 
What two items have always been the forefront of this administration's agenda, gun control (Fast and Furious and ruthless exploitation of psychopathic killing) and taxation (Obamacare is not about healthcare, it is about individual control of everyone administered through the IRS- not to mention in every presidential address there is a cal for some additional form of taxation).
Be concerned and wary. m/y

Big Brother Barack | FrontPage Magazine

By Arnold Ahlert On June 7, 2013
A stunning report by the Guardian newspaper published late Wednesday evening reveals that the National Security Agency (NSA) has been collecting the phone records of millions of Americans who are customers of Verizon, one of the nation’s largest telecom companies. The top-secret order, obtained by the paper, requires Verizon to submit to the NSA, “on an ongoing daily basis…all call details or ‘telephony metadata’ created by Verizon for communications (i) between the United States and abroad; or (ii) wholly within the United States, including local telephone calls.” Moreover, the paper reports that Americans’ communication records “are being collected indiscriminately and in bulk–regardless of whether they are suspected of any wrongdoing.”
The parameters of the exposed surveillance program are indeed massive, indiscriminate and involve no conditions of probable cause or reasonable suspicion of terrorist activities. Judge Roger Vinson of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) granted the order on April 25, directing Verizon to collect the data only until July 19, unless the blanket order is extended. The so-called “metadata” includes
comprehensive communications routing information, including but not limited to session identifying information (e.g. originating and terminating telephone number, International Mobile station Equipment Identity (IMEI) number,etc.), trunk identifier, telephone calling card numbers, and time and duration of call.
The content of the conversations are not covered. Neither is the name, address or financial information for a subscriber or customer. Yet the targets of this seizure — Americans — are clear in that the above order does not include calls made between foreigners. Furthermore, none of these limitations would stop the NSA from putting together a clear picture of who called who, how and when the call was made, and from what location.
Vinson’s order clearly states that while the application was initiated by the FBI, Verizon’s “Custodian of Records” shall turn the data over to the NSA. Yet section 2.3,  “Collection of Information” included in “Executive Order 12333-United States Intelligence activities,” specifically limits the NSA’s collection of data to “foreign intelligence or counterintelligence” sources, further stipulating that data collection within the United States
shall be undertaken by the FBI or, when significant foreign intelligence is sought, by other authorized agencies of the Intelligence Community, provided that no foreign intelligence collection by such agencies may be undertaken for the purpose of acquiring information concerning the domestic activities of United States persons.
Thus, the NSA is in violation of its own charter. [Laws mean little or nothing to to this administration.]
