According to a new report from The Washington Post, President Obama's administration sought to relax restrictions on National Security Agency surveillance in 2011, winning permission from a surveillance court to deliberately search for the intercepted phone calls and emails of citizens without a warrant. The court also reportedly extended the length of time that the NSA is permitted to store intercepted US communications to 6 years, up from 5, and even longer under "special circumstances."

u know after bush jr i would never have thought they could find some one worse

i wonder how horrible the next one would be

the US is extremely divided on views

protests in other countries are seen as revolutions

in the US protests are laughed at

 

i wonder how long it will last

If your grave doesn't say "rest in peace" on it You are automatically drafted into the skeleton war.
