Then again, something. <br /><br />Meanwhile, some of us less intellectually active folks really don't give a flying fuck. It's clear to us that the United States government -- recall, that'd be we the people -- is funneling shit into our ears. Maybe we have a good reason to do so, but there's no good reason forthcoming, and we're obviously too stupid to infer it. So thanks for all the careful, nuanced analysis. I'd never have considered that angle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-41778036357305505202013-08-23T10:47:26.310-05:002013-08-23T10:47:26.310-05:00This should go down as the longest amateur hour in...This should go down as the longest amateur hour in history.<br /><br />I'm still trying to wrap my brain around the part where a patriot motivated only by a profound commitment to human liberty ends up a Russian permanent resident.<br /><br />[link> insert fav urdoingitwronglolcat pic</link]bladernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-17565249424101245572013-08-23T10:36:03.964-05:002013-08-23T10:36:03.964-05:00Hmmm.

Seems like the most responsible handlers of The Most Dangerous Trove of Intelligence Secrets in the History of Anywhere has been Glennwald Snowgreen. The government can't seem to keep a lid of any of its secrets.<br /><br />But, of course, because Ed-den Snow-wald is involved, it's useless to go into this issue because someone said something once at the beginning of all this hurly-burly, and now this thing has spun out into something completely different.

It's not about privacy. It's about undermining government, specifically the democrat in the White House, for political purposes.<br /><br />"Assange's Emerging Politics: Rand Paul And Libertarian Wing of GOP Represent 'Only Hope'"<br /><br />Forbes (Page 2): UPDATE: Wikileaks Party under fire in Australia for what some are describing its “lurch to the right,” revealing in filings that “they want the fascist Australia First Party, the pro-shooting-in-National-Parks Shooters and Fishers Party , and the “mens rights activist” Non-Custodial Parents Party to win a seat instead of the Australian Greens. Maybe this really is an international conservative movement."<br /><br />NOTE THIS: "What’s fascinating is that Paul (the father, less so the son, who still has aspirations to actual head up the vast government he says he despises) largely rejects a modern view of democracy, claiming that “pure democracy is dangerous” and that the founders never intended actual democratic rule. “Democracy is majority rule at the expense of the minority,” wrote Paul last year. “Our system has certain democratic elements, but the founders never mentioned democracy in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, or the Declaration of Independence.”<br /><br />READ IN FULL: http://www.forbes.com/sites/tomwatson/2013/08/17/assanges-politics-rand-paul-and-libertarian-wing-of-gop-represent-only-hope-in-u-s/<br /><br />Finally, somebody had the balls to say it.kfreednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-50515269172018922372013-08-23T08:44:50.924-05:002013-08-23T08:44:50.924-05:00I believe this all has more to do with bolstering ...I believe this all has more to do with bolstering The Guardian's revenues and any damage or benefit resulting is purely a consequence of business.BlindRobinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10178683258724942700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-12586742364317138172013-08-23T05:24:30.200-05:002013-08-23T05:24:30.200-05:00DRONEGLASS, will you never tire of bathing in the ...DRONEGLASS, will you never tire of bathing in the blood of innocent Muslim children(tm) and saluting your wall sized poster of Obama inside your own personal NSA pentagram?<br /><br />It's because of you we can't talk about the evil things the United States has done.
