Avoidance is not the same as Denial...

I've been trying to avoid making political statements lately...
(Hell, I haven't been making any statements lately. Sue me.)

But...
I overheard the most interesting exchange this morning- about how horrible it was that the Syrian government shut down Internet access to the populace, in order to keep the people from organizing via twitter/facebook/whathaveyou and to stop them from posting inflammatory pics on YouTube and Instagram...

Where the fuck was your attention last July when Obama issued an EXECUTIVE ORDER that gave him control over YOUR Internet access in times of "emergency"...

The Federal Government must have the ability to communicate at all times and under all circumstances to carry out its most critical and time sensitive missions. Survivable, resilient, enduring, and effective communications, both domestic and international, are essential to enable the executive branch to communicate within itself and with: the legislative and judicial branches; State, local, territorial, and tribal governments; private sector entities; and the public, allies, and other nations. Such communications must be possible under all circumstances to ensure national security, effectively manage emergencies, and improve national resilience.

 Fucked, we are.


Hope you're prepared...
