WTF! Citizen Spy Groups!?

I remember when I was a kid, we used to watch TV footage of East Berliners/Germans risking their lives to escape from their country.  They were running from their own country because it had become a utilitarian society of the highest proportions.  The escapees knew if they could get to West Germany, or the US, they would be able to live their lives as they chose.  I was glad we were able help the few that got out.

 Today I wonder if we are closer to living in an East German state than the one of my youth.  Think about it, where can you go today without being on a camera somewhere?  If you are daring enough to fly, the TSA has given you the option of getting unknown amounts of radiation, and letting them see you totally naked; or you can get the "pat down" where they literally grab your genitals, and breasts.  All of this to keep you safe.  We are becoming conditioned as a society to accept atrocities that East Germans never had to endure.  If airplanes were dropping out of the sky because of terrorists, maybe we would have reason to eradicate most of the Constitution; however the last "terrorist" attack was 9/11.  All the evidence points to a government conspiracy behind the events of 9/11, not a bunch of scary men in turbans.  Seems to me we need to be kept safe from our own government.


Now the Dept. of Homeland Security (the first time I heard Bush call it that I thought of Nazi Germany) Big Sis, Janet Napolitano has started the "See Something, Say Something" campaign trying to get Americans ratting on each other to the Feds.  They have tele-screens at over 9,000 Walmart Stores, spewing out their message to the typical Walmart customer.  What could possibly go wrong?  "Yes Mr. FBI man, I want to report a suspicious person.  She's standing in front of me here in this long line at the check out, and she's wearing an orange tube top!  Everyone knows you wear white tube tops in the summer!"  Walmart is just the beginning, wait until you see her sour puss in Times Square.

A CITIZEN SPY RING!!!  If you thought you already had too many eyes on you, you haven't seen anything yet.  We are going to have to worry about our neighbors, our co-workers, the folks at church, and people on the street, and in the stores.  If this is not bad enough, legislation is being introduced to give these "citizen spies" immunity from lawsuits if their information is incorrect. Are you kidding me?  " I'm so sorry I had the Feds bust down your door, shoot your dog, and sack your house.  You really shouldn't have worn an orange tube top...you bitch"  




We really are playing out Orwell's novel 1984 here today, not only in the US, but on a world wide scale.  If we don't wake up to what is happening around us, and resist it, it will become too late.  Unlike those brave souls back in the past risking their lives for freedom, we won't have anywhere to run.  We will be living the East German nightmare forever.

Ain't That Peculiar

Its kind of funny how life is now a days. One day you are told one thing, then the next day, they tell you something different. Who they are I'm not quite sure, but whoever they are, they can't seem to be able to make up their minds.

I remember when I was young, growing up a Catholic, the nuns told us that it was a mortal sin to eat meat on Friday. This meant that if you deliberately ate meat on a Friday, and knew that it was a mortal sin, and did not confess that sin to the nice priest, (who then had you say fifty "Hail Marys", twenty "Our Fathers", and fifteen "Act of Contritions",) and died; you would spend all of eternity being one of Satan's minions.

Around 1971, the Church did an about face on the eating meat on Friday thing; now it was no longer a sin at all, to eat meat on a Friday. I always wondered about the poor souls burning in hell for eating a lousy baloney sandwich on a Friday. Did St. Peter take the elevator down to hell, and proclaim, "Hey, all you guys down here on the eating meat on Friday rap, come on up!" The nuns I questioned about this denied that they ever said it was a mortal sin to eat meat on a Friday. Hmmmmmm.

Last October (one whole year ago!), gasoline was averaging $4.00/gal. We were being told that oil, being a fossil fuel, was limited in supply; and that the cost to explore, drill, import, etc. etc. was the reason for the ever increasing prices. Then the doo doo hit the fan with the economy; people couldn't afford to pay exorbitant prices for gas. The oil companies weren't selling enough gas to keep their profit margins up. Now gasoline is averaging $2.70/gal! Maybe oil wasn't so scarce after all. Hmmmmmm.

Maybe I am too skeptical, but it seems to me that we are being told whatever lie is convenient, to persuade us to do what they want. Want to talk about the bailout for the banks? Hmmmmm. How about the erosion of personal freedoms to keep America safe? Hmmmmm. It seems to me, that the next time they tell us the truth about anything, it will be the first time.
