SCOTUS To Review GPS Tracking

Be sure to watch the video in the Hot Air article on this subject of warrantless monitoring.

There are references that court rulings suggest “no expectation to privacy when driving on public roads.”

And yet, to have the FBI covertly place a tracker on your car means it has to be parked and the owner nowhere in sight. Likely, your driveway. But, that’s your property. Meaning the car AND the driveway. (How about when you park inside your garage?) Check your land deed for your property lines. Only so much of your property may be easements or locally managed property. And even then, there are arguments over how much of your trash is still your property or public for the sake of criminal investigations.

Are we a nation of laws, or aren’t we? The U.S. Constitution and local laws seem to say so.

“The law applies to everyone or it means nothing.”

US Boots on Somolian Ground

Looks like we are now at war in yet another country.

Wright Makes A Wrong

Great Jumpin Jehosophat, er, Jeremiah.

Come now, Pastor Wright, methinks you have that wrong. All Whites are not liars, and you are far from perfect.

I’d turn the other cheek but this can’t be allowed to go unanswered.

You need some serious help. You are poisoning the people in your audience.

What A Drag

Maybe, with luck, he will stall out.

From The Voice In My Head.

Oh, and these jets the WH doesn’t want to talk about. At all.

Don’t Go To Joe For Help

That is Veep Biden’s message to Unions.

If they vote Republican.

Know what? It could mean that they would be voting – against fiscal irresponsibility.

Ya think? Just like the rest of us. Come on, folks, you won’t be disappointed.

Nevada Fats

Apparently, Senator Harry Reid wants millionaires to help pay down the debt/deficit.

Excuse me, Senator, but they aren’t the ones responsible for the debt. You (and most of Congress) are.

Besides, I’d think you just lost the support of some of your own with your call to alms.

Specious Delivery

How’s that go? Through rain, sleet or snow …?

Well, it turns out that the U.S. Postal Service may soon need a taxpayer bailout yet again. So one would wonder just why the federal agency blew hundreds of thousands of dollars on professional sports tickets, booze and fancy meals.

I want to know why USPS managers and employees are issued special charge cards. And you do too.

Who Is ATM?

All That Money ….. or all those morons?

It’s Hammertime!

Where Is The Leader?

Who’s leading who? And where?

Gotcha Moment

Part of the transcript …..

Jessica Yellin. Congratulations, your first question here.

Q Thank you, Mr. President.

THE PRESIDENT: No pressure. You’re going to do great. (Laughter.)

Q Thank you. Your administration has laid out four different dates by which you’ve said that the debt ceiling must be raised or the U.S. would face potential dire consequences. Three of those dates have come and gone and we haven’t faced financial calamity. Some of your critics have argued that these are then scare tactics to force a deal. So why should the American people believe that the August 2nd deadline is the final deadline by which a deal must be raised? And would you also spell out for us what you believe will happen if the debt ceiling is not raised by that date?

THE PRESIDENT: Jessica, let’s be clear. We haven’t given out four different dates. We have given out dates that are markers for us getting into trouble. It’s the equivalent of you’re driving down the street and the yellow light starts flashing. The yellow light is flashing. Now, it hasn’t been a red light yet. So what Tim Geithner has said is, technically speaking, we’re in a position now where we’re having to do a whole bunch of things to make sure that our bills are paid.

He’s not even on the road to salvation.
Great job, Jessica.
