Props To Rand Paul

  Not a fan of Paul, but here he did the right thing, unfortunately the result was not good.

Guardian UK: Rand Paul ends marathon filibuster but fails to block Patriot Act - Republican Rand Paul steps down after more than 10 hours in bid to halt the federal government’s collection of its citizens’ phone records

Nice photo op. Rand, but we all know the "REAL" Gov't ( AKA the NSA et al.) couldn't care less what the rest of think. They do however care about what we say and their more then prepared to use it against us where ever and whenever possible.

Well I would suspect what they know is that there is a nation of boring people, many of whom are depressed and anxious and worried, everybody has financial issues, and everybody is dreaming of some form of relief be it sexual or a movie or a dip in the pool. This information is more valuable to corporations structuring products and entertainment than anything else. I would suspect that this is the real issue, it's not about security, it's about mass herding.
