• ‘He Looks Black’: NBC Launches Internal Investigation into Selective Editing of Zimmerman Police Tape

  April 1, 2012 at 8:24am

  I also wonder if one of the Zimmerman face photos on some sites wasn’t photo edited to lighten parts of his face. So not only did we have a clip of text possibly missing but was his face lightened as well?

  Isn’t inciting riots and causing others to commit crimes against the Law? Double standard?

  One word – Echelon. Wiki it for a limited idea of what it is. Been around for decades. That is just one piece of what is done.

  In reply to KCPatriot.

  Continuing…
  In short, no one is above the law or the Constitution, not even law enforcement, and they know this. Play by the rules that apply to everyone.

  It is too bad that the courts don’t make this a bit tougher on the agency for violating the rights of the individuals. Getting court orders to turn on the devices is a start but instead of just turning them on, they should have been ordered to either prove why they should be left in place by court order OR they should have been ordered to notify the individual that they had put the device in their vehicle and they are now wanting to claim it back. Were those individuals who might now be adversely affected by the devices being turned on given a chance for their side being heard in court? Don’t our laws provide this opportunity? Did the court also order that the devices being turned on and being removed could not be used for any other purpose than their removal and the location and content of the vehicle at the time was to be unrecorded since the first and now an implied second stealth invasion of privacy both which should not have occurred as there was no probable cause as determined by a court? The notices should have been given so that the individuals also have the right to sue for their privacy being violated instead of the device being removed in the dead of night, and to ask the courts for a permanent injunction such that the agency never does it again to them. Sure the agency should get their devices back if they can find them, but they also should have to be held accountable for violating the rights of those individuals who should never have been tracked. In short, no

• Andrew Sullivan: Catholic Church Wants to ‘Control the Sex Lives of Other People’

  February 15, 2012 at 3:50pm

  It is amazing how the liberal progressives twist their own doings into being the other guys fault. Here we have a direct violation of religious rights. So the mainstream media twists this into it being the Catholics fault for “wanting to control other people’s contraceptive rights”. The Catholics, Episcopalians, Jews aren’t trying here to stop others, the progressives are trying to control every aspect of everyones’ lives including forcing others to pay for their choices. (Green, toilets, CFLs, food nazis, …) This is their response to the religious blowback with the hope they can win public opinion by redirection. I believe Obama Admin‘s response was to make just enough of a change that they thought they could eliminate the religious groups’ standing to be able to sue – by moving the cost of the contraceptives away from the employers and to the insurance companies. They even had 28 groups ready to form a defense website and to publish favorable poll numbers. Unfortunately for Obama, progressives appear to have overlooked that some of the religious institutions self-insure, thus still bearing the direct costs and still having standing. And indeed the religious individuals without deep pockets still are compelled to directly pay for the premiums with the embedded costs of contraceptives while the progressives argue the contraceptive costs are less than pregnancy costs. It would be interesting to see the studies that prove that statement and prove there actually is no c

• AP Source: Obama to Change Birth Control Rule to ‘Accommodate’ Religious Employers

  February 10, 2012 at 2:31pm

  This latest “compromise” by Obama is no compromise. The Admin circled their wagons. They intend to have their way no matter what. Providing abortion/contraceptive services while moving the abortion/contraceptives cost to the insurance companies “at no cost” appears to me to be a legal maneuver to remove the legal basis for the religious organizations to be able to successfully sue on Constitutional grounds because arguably the religious organizations weren’t directly injured now. Does any reasonable person think that the insurance companies are going to provide this costly benefit at no “cost” while themselves eating the expense? This expense will be factored back into the policy costs and the employers and insured will pay for it, although it won’t appear on the bill as “contraceptives.”

• The Top 8 Videos From Alaska’s Massive, Record Snow

  I’m not in such a rush to let the pundits get away with using the words “climate change” to replace “global warming.” The reason they changed the words is because it got colder, arctic ice was refreezing, and warming didn’t fit and it was embarrassing to them and was interfering with their carbon credit redistribution of wealth.

• Secret Data and Keystroke-Logging Software Revealed on Millions of Smartphones

  November 30, 2011 at 2:13pm

  This software that wasn‘t mentioned to the customers in my opinion sounds like the Fed’s best wet dream. They already have Echelon to snoop and already monitor cell phones for GPS positions. But this software now presents a brand new opportunity for Feds, local authorities, and even civil courts to simple subpoena the information for any particular person at will, not just snoopy Feds monitoring normal citizens without warrants. There simply is no end to their intrusiveness and elimination of our privacy rights – clear down to TSA groping our kids and grannies. Someone should sue one of the phone companies.

• Herman Cain: Karl Rove Deliberately Trying to ‘Damage’ Me

  October 25, 2011 at 1:11am

  Rove wants Romney?! I can understand him wanting a mainstream GOP candidate with backing to win. That doesn’t mean he is the best candidate over Cain rather that he might possibly win with handling, chameleon tactics, money, and backing. I presently prefer Cain. I respect Rove but I think he’d serve our country better helping a great candidate get backing. I’d vote for Romney in main election reluctantly and while frowning. Why? Romneycare mandate, IMO chameleon campaign, and Seamus the poor Romney family dog that rode the car top in a carrier in 1983 per both Pet Connection (http://ow.ly/1zbGZk) and Washington Post articles (that one now scrubbed).
