Something else for the Bush Policy was a great thing crowd.

There have been so many who insist that there is nothing President Obama can do to end the Bush Policies, so we should be glad that there is someone like President Obama in charge to make sure that things aren't abused that I thought I'd give them something else to cheer about.

The National Security Agency has obtained direct access to the systems of Google, Facebook, Apple and other US internet giants, according to a top secret document obtained by the Guardian.

The NSA access is part of a previously undisclosed program called PRISM, which allows officials to collect material including search history, the content of emails, file transfers and live chats, the document says.


You should be so happy after all, there is no way this could be real, and even if it is. It's a great thing that we have a Democrat in the White House, because if there was a Republican in the White House, you know they would be doing something worse or something.

Where did my Democratic Party go?
