Sorry, I pay for it, I like a paper in the morning! What’s my option? Is the Mesa paper better?

I think he means you should read it online (FYI, I checked my paper and 3 local news stations – ABC, CBS, NBC affiliates – and none had ANYTHING about the Hsu story)

Please tell me you read that piece of garbage online, rather than wasting your money. Of course if you like to fish and clean em yourself…

Sorry I don’t know the answers to your question. She did not say. Yes it is the ultimate tracking tool and very scary and an affront to our privacy.

I don’t understand why some on this site find this so hard to believe or found it completely ridiculous when they first read the post. If these people would just think about it.

Just watching the news we hear about the technology it all the time. Think about it.

When someone is missing we hear whether or not their cell phone or their ATM card or credit cards have been used. So we know the technology is out there so how hard is it to add two and two together. It is only logical.

Completely ridiculous. But thanks for the laugh.

Yeah I actually had read about the new version passports, and know about the dog chips. I just meant that this stuff isn’t happening yet, not that it couldn’t.

Nice back down. You went from “Completely ridiculous” to “I just meant that this stuff isn’t happening yet, not that it couldn’t.” It sure did not sound that way last night. I’ll let you slide this time :)

I screwed up the last link. Bryon York writes about America Coming Together here.

All this crap about ‘I’ll give the donations back if they’re dirty’ is closing the barn door after the horse is out.

Have you heard about Soros’ group, America Coming Together?

This story was largely ignored by by the MSM. What a shocka!

Discover the Networks notes:

In August 2007, Politico.com reported that the Federal Election Commission (FEC) was fining ACT some $775,000 for having used unregulated soft money to help John Kerry and other Democratic candidates in 2004. The FEC determined that most of the $137 million ACT had raised for its get-out-the-vote effort that year, was derived from contributions that violated federal limits. The settlement was the third largest enforcement penalty in the FEC’s 33-year history.

Suits were filed with the FEC during the 2004 election cycle but they were ignored until the election was over. ACT shut their doors in 2005, and while people say that the plug was pulled because they failed in their efforts, I suspect it was also because they knew Soros and others knew it was illegal and it would make less of a news splash if they closed up shop before the FEC made their ruling.

And we can thank McCain-Feingold for doing such a stellar job of ending corruption.

Not to mention, what charities are getting this dirty money?
Not the ACLU, NARAL,Planned Parenthood, Holy Land Foundation, etc. by any chance?
