OK, we know that private corporations and NSA elites have dirt on every ....

[Scuba]

... Congresscritter, Supreme Court Justice, Cabinet member, military officer and local cop on the beat who ever so much as admitted to jaywalking over the phone or in an email.

And some still argue that it's OK? That it doesn't matter to 99% of us?

WTF?

3. They're actually orange, but the light in here is funny.

2. In a plutocracy, the 1% need that kind of power.

It really works great in this fear driven society.

4. I have long thought that if I ever took leave of my senses and ran for office

against a mudslinging Republican, I'd just admit everything and say it sounded like fun because if you actually remember the 60s, you weren't really there.

Not only do I have skeletons, they're partying in that closet.

However, it's probably useful in the short term, making weenie politicians so terrified of exposure they forget the whole idea and go back to probating wills in Podunk. That's if somebody tells them what dirt is on file, naturally.

5. Hope they get this message. Fuck the NSA!

6. NSA + corporations run the world

OK, the problem is the folks who just want to tell us how horrible things are.
Some people have actually gone to jail for stuff, they shouldn't run for public office without voters knowing.
Some people (Anthony Weiner) sure don't need the NSA or corporations to catch them.
Name one Congresscritter who has been blackmailed by the NSA. It only takes 218 to pass laws.
Supreme court justices have jobs for LIFE. The NSA has murdered zero. The number impeached-ever-=0.
No one is arguing that is OK, they are arguing that it is delusional.
