Sick irony in NSA wiretaps/wide open borders
*Radioactive Matter Gets Into U.S. in Test*
<snip>
In a series of reports, the GAO, which is the investigative arm of Congress, found that the Homeland Security Department's goal of installing 3,034 radiation detectors by September 2009 across the United States — at border crossings, seaports, airports and mail facilities — was "unlikely."

The sheeple are told the NSA wiretaps (among other suspect "law enforcement" strategies) are a necessary component in being prepared to counter terrorist planning on doing harm.

Yet, the borders are wide open. 11M undocumented workers got through? (my wife is Mexican and she thinks that might be a bit underestimated)

This just is so transparent.

1. What we have isn't really a government
they are doing the most wicked things and are not bothered about governing
