President Obama announced yesterday a group that supposed to review privacy
issues raised by
the NSA surveillance programs he said quote
were forming a high-level group love outside experts
to review our entire intelligence and communications technologies
the group would consider how we can maintain the trust
on the people how we can make sure that there is
absolutely no abuse in terms of how the surveillance technologies
are used so remember it's supposed to be an
independent group keyword independent group
on outside experts why is President Obama doing as well
I mean the reason it it appears at face value is that since there was a national
outcry after
the stories broke with the NSA surveillance program
this is his way of saying oppressors don't really know him the American
people or maybe I'm totally not like George W Bush
on in favor of transparency well %uh set up this group to make sure that there sa
no a you know corruption or problems or abuse in a
spying programs we're gonna spy properly I want that distinction
like this is one of those issues where you're either in favor of it
for your against either you're in favor of disregarding the fourth amendment and
collecting information
on millions of americans millions of them
apparently we are all part both a terror investigation we are all terror suspects
right
either you're for an earlier against it but not all typical Obama move
but he pretends to be centrist and progressive while being incredibly
right-wing
you know yet now will put a set up a committee to make sure that the spying
is
not to worry just up
I mean it's poorly worded trite so
who did President Obama pic to be the head of the group which
independent expert did he pick James clapper
remember James clapper is he is the former director
up the NSAA who lied to congress
and when he was asked a question quote is there any type of data
at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans he responded
no that when he was pressed on it he said
well i mean there are cases that they could inadvertently
collect information but not willingly so of course we learn that was a
flat out lie so he came out on TV afterwards and said
know at the time it wasn't really a large per se what had happened was the
Sun was in my eyes or something and it was the
all least only for full thing I can say at the moment
I mean you want to talk about orwellian that is classic
orwellian speak but this is the guy that's gonna head the organization
for small just the putting aside the fact that he lied
the former head of the NSA is gonna tell us whether or not the NSA is
going too far but
fox guarding the hen house is what that is what time Tiger Woods had a committee
on
staying faithful to your wife I can go on all day
I let's have by the sumo wrestlers give a class
on how to lose weight stalin is going to give a class on small government
I me know every single one of those an Audi exactly what's going on here
and this is I mean the biggest joke in the world how President Obama couldn't
put two and two together and realize that this is the worst person to
head this group is beyond me
even from a political perspective I don't pretend like
he would understand from an actual policy perspective that this is a green
just because
I mean he's still in favor the NSA spying programs but even from
appear optics perspective to meet up politically on Sat me to put the worst
person you can possibly imagine
in favor the group man
Obama has disappointed in many ways
