By then, it will be too late. But that's ok. Just keep bending forward for the government. Let them do whatever they want. After all, if we behave, and don't irritate them, they won't bother us, right?

The technology isn't going away.

So again, when the government does it, get back to me and we'll bitch about it together.

Until then, i'm gonna think you're just cuckoo.

COG How can you talk about "the end of privacy"?
I assume you were born in America, that means you haven't even had a chance to taste "the beginning of privacy".
Everyone talks about "the free world" and "we love freedom in America".

The truth is America has no clue what freedom is.

If I can't paint my own condo yellow or purple because the home owners association forbids it, it that freedom?

I'm sorry but if you want real freedom or privacy you'll have to move to Denmark or Sweden or Norway or Luxembourg or the Netherlands or Finland or Austria or Liechtenstein or Switzerland or Monaco.

I don't trust Romney with this, either. If that makes you happy.

Why would you trust Romney anyway?

Thanks for your input, Doofie. Next time wait until you're asked. Morons should be seen, and not heard.



Oops, I forgot how offended you are by name calling. Let's say I meant that in a nice way.

You want it to offend me, i can tell, but it doesn't. If it weren't for Marshall, you'd be the most boring troll i've ever encountered.

SOF might take me up on my kind and generous offer yet!

Now BigTurd. I don't know where, or if, you went to school. Syria is a fascist country, led by a personality cult dictator who likes to kill those who disagree with him. In other words, just what you hope President Obama turns the United States into. So no thank you.

Pick up another ticket, it would be a nice place for you and Doofie to spend a romantic honeymoon. Imagine, evenings on the balcony, a light breeze, a refreshing beverage, and the sound of gunfire in the distance quelling dissent. You two would love it.
