[click image]The moldy pulp of our shredded and flushed Constitution seems to have been shot off world. At least, it seems, the change we can believe in is that it will be utterly ignored when operating on a global level... and President of the Earth, Barack Obama has so avidly embraced secrecy, opacity, and outright fascist maneuvers under the rubric of national security, here at home, that it must feel great to just be able to dispense even with appearances abroad.
This, indeed, is despicably bad.
I've put the proof, the evidence of the offending document at the image link -- with the most salient bit at Thomas not returning the necessary document -- and it's part of a larger piece here, but the short and short of it is expressed bluntly by Cory Doctorow here.
[On a semi-related note... seems they figured out something less permanent but equally scary to replace dirty bombs, enhance our terror of identity theft and excuse their invasion of our privacy. Yes, ever so much more elegant than Fudd's incessant blundering, don't you think?]
AND IT'S PART OF A GENERAL THRUST....
The Corporatocracy will prevail...besides its for your own good, gotta catch those terrorists and all, keep you safe.
ReplyDeleteI got a tiny amount of satisfaction noting that out of all the bagillion photojournalism sources there were only two images where his expression was just a little on the smirky side of almost half a smile. He's running from dour to outright distraught-looking these days... THE FUCKER... and he richly deserves it. This is just appalling news to be coming about this administration. Fudd didn't even have the cojones to try this... or not that we've seen anyway. There's a theory floating around that Fudd's Obama's superior... and that somehow doesn't seem too paranoid to consider to me lately. Even so, this is seriously shitty dealing that he seems to have come up with on his own.
