Mission Creep

Posted in: Muscatine

Anyone care to attempt to answer my question before asking another one?

That's a tough one. All these new revealtions about phone taps, wire taps, email surveillance, message -keeping,....and yet....none of that level of security prevented 9/11, or any attacks since. Any attacks since!!!!!!! All the current revelations were over our security.....but none of the noted attacks were prevented. Why?

Gee, this is getting awfully hard to keep up with.  Now the State Department fellas around rounding up hookers three at a time while on company time? 

 

You have to admit....these Democratic presidents sure do make for some eye-catching headlines.

The question is where will the NSA stop in information gathering?  To be followed up with who determines who will be observed and for what purpose?  Could information gathering be accomplished on a local level?  The answer is absolutely YES.  Is it being done? Yes, it is in a different way.  Unjustified search warrants being signed off by Judges and used for personal or political purposes in Muscatine?  Yes.  

 

Perhaps, the simple statement.   Muscatine residents don't care either way.

Maybe I need to re-post my original question:

 

  "Has this all evolved into something the majority of our citizens did not really bargain for subsequent to 9/11?"
