Big Brother: "There’s a Secret Patriot Act, Senator Says"
You think you understand how the Patriot Act allows the government to spy on its citizens. Sen. Ron Wyden says it’s worse than you know.
Congress is set to reauthorize three controversial provisions of the surveillance law as early as Thursday. Wyden (D-Oregon) says that powers they grant the government on their face, the government applies a far broader legal interpretation — an interpretation that the government has conveniently classified, so it cannot be publicly assessed or challenged. But one prominent Patriot-watcher asserts that the secret interpretation empowers the government to deploy ”dragnets” for massive amounts of information on private citizens; the government portrays its data-collection efforts much differently.

Big Brother: "U.S. police state begins exponential expansion"
The recent Indiana Supreme Court ruling against the U.S. Constitution — rendering the Fourth Amendment null and void in that state by terminating citizens' right to resist illegal police entry into their homes — is only the latest unconscionable step in a series of actions designed to unravel each and every portion of the Bill of Rights.
The ruling by Indiana's patently leftist court is designed to complement and enhance the already jack-booted Obama police-state march into America's states, cities, and homes.

Big Brother: "Obama's desire for data on your kid"
This plan calls for a computerized system to track all Americans from cradle to grave by cross-linking all their school and college academic and extra-curricular records, including tests and appraisals by supervisors and peers, with health, welfare, employment and income data. The data gatherers used to talk about collecting K-12 data, and then they moved to Pre-K-16, and now their lingo is pre-birth to entry into the workforce.
