Attention Freepers
I'm sure either you or someone you know accessed the Iraqi documents posted on that Federal web site at the assistance of the White House. You were trying to do the right thing, I guess. Trying to link Saddam and Al Qaeda or to WMDs. Maybe you looked at the nuclear documents that were accidentally included. Maybe you looked at other documents that were somehow related. Guess what?

The government is now going to investigate you.

Remember how you didn't care about warrantless wiretaps? Remember how you didn't care about the revocation of habeas corpus? Remember how you didn't care because you had "done nothing wrong"? After all, if you have nothing to hide...

Well now YOU get to be monitored. And your phone calls tapped. And your internet searches recorded. And your credit card purchases tracked. Enjoy.

His office began reviewing the consequences, including who accessed the documents. Four Democratic senators demanded he also tell them why and how the site began, what role members of Congress played and whether the administration ignored U.S. intelligence officials' concerns.

6. I don't see where it says
there are going to be investigations into individuals who accessed the documents. It just says the office is reviewing the consequences of who accessed them.

13. "...reviewing the consequences, including who accessed the documents"
You don't see where it says they'll "look into individuals who accessed the documents" ???

It seems pretty clear to me. :shrug:

17. I felt it was a safe assumption
that those who accessed the documents, at the least, COULD be investigated (and monitored, wiretapped, etc.). That's really the point I was trying to make.

11. K&R...
If the freepers have nothing to hide they shouldn't care that Uncle Sugar is sneaking and peeking when they leave the house, to go to the fund raisers and Klan Meetings.

15. Sometimes people should get exactly what they asked for.
And the freeps have definitely been asking for fascism.

27. off-topic message to FReeper RoseofTexas
You use the "Marlboro Man" in all of your posts to demonstrate a "Red State" Man. Do you really know about him?






THE WAR WITHIN

The man in the photograph is James Blake Miller, now 21, and he is an icon, although in ways Rather probably never imagined.

He's quieter now -- easier to anger. He turns to fight at the sound of a backfire, can't look at fireworks without thinking of fire raining down on a city. He has trouble sleeping, and when he does, his fingers twitch on invisible triggers.

The diagnosis: post-traumatic stress disorder.

His life in Kentucky, before and after the clicking shutter, says as much about hundreds of thousands of new American war veterans as his famous photograph said about that one bad day in Fallujah -- a photo Miller cannot see as an icon.

"I don't see a whole lot," he said. "I see a day I won't care to remember, but that I'll never forget."

36. Probably prudent not to allow any of these "access risks" to own guns...
...or leave the country ...or freely associate ...or work in the government ...or work in important industry sectors ...or attend sporting events ...or universities ...or travel on mass transit.

You know, if there's even a one percent chance.

After all, a doctrine's a doctrine.

Maybe there's a one percent chance that Double-Barrel Dick is an irrational security risk himself, no?

37. Concentrate
Maybe they should be more concerned with what they post, rather than their gay friends that they deny knowing.
