Obama Regime BUSTED SYPING ON WORLD LEADERS, Sec State Lurch Kerry Says Govt Shutdown Responsible For Damaging US Image Abroad. 

Uhhhhhh, . . . No. Allowing you and yours, Lurch, to lay hands on the rudder of our Ship of State is responsible. 

Dear Lurch; Your Boss is responsible for all our Govt. Spying Agencies. How is this latest Fiasco the Republicans doing?

Yeah, no.

Via CNS News:

Secretary of State John Kerry used an address to a liberal think-tank Thursday to cite ways in which the recent government shutdown hurt America’s image abroad, but his speech contained no reference to the diplomatic harm being caused by the escalating surveillance scandal.

Kerry’s appearance at a Center for American Progress conference came on the same day that German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle summoned the U.S. ambassador to warn friendship was at stake over the alleged bugging of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s cell phone.

Westerwelle’s comments to reporters afterwards strongly implied Merkel had not been satisfied by assurances given her by President Obama in a phone conversation on Wednesday.

Also on Thursday, European Union leaders meeting in Brussels discussed allegations of widespread National Security Agency spying, and said afterwards that “a lack of trust [between the U.S. and E.U.] would prejudice the necessary cooperation in the field of intelligence gathering.”

NSA Admits Its Analysts Purposefully Violated Citizen's Privacy Rights

NSA Admits Its Analysts Purposefully Violated Citizen's Privacy Rights
By Brendan Sasso - 08/23/13 01:15 PM ET

National Security Agency officials deliberately overstepped their legal authority multiple times in the past decade, the agency acknowledged on Friday.

The admission contradicts previous statements by lawmakers and the Obama administration that any privacy violations were unintentional.

"Over the past decade, very rare instances of willful violations of NSA’s authorities have been found, but none under [the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] or the Patriot Act," the agency said in a statement. "NSA takes very seriously allegations of misconduct, and cooperates fully with any investigations – responding as appropriate. NSA has zero tolerance for willful violations of the agency’s authorities." 

According to Bloomberg News, which first reported on the NSA's statement, the violations were of Executive Order 12333, which was issued by President Reagan in 1981. 

The admission comes days after the government released a 2011 court opinion that concluded that the NSA had unconstitutionally collected about 56,000 emails of Americans over a three-year period. The NSA said that incident and other legal violations were the result of technical glitches.

Last week, Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said she was unaware of any intentional privacy violations.

"As I have said previously, the committee has never identified an instance in which the NSA has intentionally abused its authority to conduct surveillance for inappropriate purposes," she said in a statement.

Feinstein made the comment after The Washington Post published an internal NSA audit finding that the agency illegally obtained private communications thousands of times in recent years. But the news report did not identify any deliberate violations.

"The disclosed documents demonstrate that there was no intentional and willful violation of the law and that the NSA is not collecting the email and telephone traffic of all Americans," House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R-Mich.) said at the time. 

"The committee does not tolerate any intentional violation of the law. Human and technical errors, like all of the errors reported in this story, are unfortunately inevitable in any organization and especially in a highly technical and complicated system like NSA," he added.

Josh Earnest, the White House deputy press secretary, only echoed Feinstein's statement that her committee had not identified deliberate abuse.

"Rather, the majority of the compliance incidents are unintentional," Earnest said at the time. 

One official told Bloomberg that the actions were the result of "overzealous NSA employees or contractors eager to prevent any encore to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks."

Thank You Mr Sasso and The Hill.

Dianne Feinstein Identifies "Homeland" With A Map Including Canada and Mexico

I know Obama thinks he’s an Emperor and he is trying to declare all illegals citizens, but exactly when did we officially absorb Canada and Mexico?

Via Yahoo News:

American reporters appropriately had a ‘wait, what? moment’ on Wednesday during a Senate Judiciary committee meeting.
Senator Diane Feinstein, the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, was defending the National Security Agency’s top secret spying when she brought out a prop identifying North America — the United States, Canada and Mexico — as the “Homeland”.
You may also be surprised to learn that our homeland now includes both Mexico and Canada, two areas that we understood to be autonomous nations that are not part of the United States,” noted the Atlantic Wire, the publication which first reported the unorthodox map.

May We See Your Passwords Please
R.O.C.K. in the USSA 

7/25/2013, 8:43 pm

In its ongoing progress toward making the internet - and all of the USSA - safer and more secure for all Americans, the Obama administration and the Department of Justice today announced that the feral government will henceforth require all internet passwords to be handed over immediately.

"As you would expect," said Comrade Attorney General Eric Holder, "We will keep your passwords private and secure, in fact more secure than they are today."

President B. Husseinovich Obama added, "Let me be clear: we do these things - all these things - for the good of the American people. I will not allow partisan members of the other party to prevent all Americans from being safe and secure, both in their homes and on the internet, as long as they remember their common sense duty to retreat to safety if threatened."

Comrade FLATUS Mooochelle Obama said that she is currently designing a pallet of web-safe colors to be used in all websites and applications, based on healthy vegetables: "For the first time in my life, I'm proud of the internet," stated the First Wookie, "And we will continue to move forward to ensure that no website or web application uses bloated code or non-organic colors."

Thank You Komrad R.O.C.K. and thepeoplescube

And since Komrad Chairman and the Party are going to end up with your passwords anyway, how about we all just use the Same password, since it will make us All more equal, and then Everyone will be equally able to equally report Fishy Rumors they find Anyone spreading.

Any suggestions for a common, and universally equal password, Komrad readers, so that we can all Share and Share alike?

From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs? 

Perhaps we could use this opportunity to send Dear Leader a message, an Equal and Equally Shared for the Greater Good, Password, since he's obviously not listening to the proles as it is, though this latest improvement on our outdated Constitution clearly signals Komrad Chairman Barackovich's unquenchable desire to hear what we're saying.

NSA Says It Can't Search Its Own E-Mails

NSA Says It Can't Search Its Own E-Mails
by Justin Elliott

The NSA is a "supercomputing powerhouse" with machines so powerful their speed is measured in thousands of trillions of operations per second. The agency turns its giant machine brains to the task of sifting through unimaginably large troves of data its surveillance programs capture. 

But ask the NSA, as part of a freedom of information request, to do a seemingly simple search of its own employees' email? The agency says it doesn’t have the technology.

"There's no central method to search an email at this time with the way our records are set up, unfortunately," NSA Freedom of Information Act officer Cindy Blacker told me last week.

The system is “a little antiquated and archaic," she added.

I filed a request last week for emails between NSA employees and employees of the National Geographic Channel over a specific time period. The TV station had aired afriendly documentary on the NSA and I want to better understand the agency's public-relations efforts.

A few days after filing the request, Blacker called, asking me to narrow my request since the FOIA office can search emails only “person by person," rather than in bulk. The NSA has more than 30,000 employees.

I reached out to the NSA press office seeking more information but got no response.

It’s actually common for large corporations to do bulk searches of their employees email as part of internal investigations or legal discovery.

“It’s just baffling,” says Mark Caramanica of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press. “This is an agency that’s charged with monitoring millions of communications globally and they can’t even track their own internal communications in response to a FOIA request.”

Federal agencies’ public records offices are often underfunded, according to Lucy Dalglish, dean of the journalism school at University of Maryland and a longtime observer of FOIA issues.

But, Daglish says, “If anybody is going to have the money to engage in evaluation of digital information, it’s the NSA for heaven’s sake.”

For more on the NSA, read our story on the agency’s tapping of Internet cables, our fact-check on claims about the NSA and Sept. 11, and our timeline of surveillance law.

Thank You Mr. Elliot and Pro Publica.

NSA can access everybody else's communications but they can't search their own emails?

Obama Lied: Top Secret Rules Allow NSA To Collect U.S. Domestic Data WITHOUT a Warrant

Weaselzippers has;

Obama Lied: Top Secret Rules Allow NSA To Collect U.S. Domestic Data WITHOUT a Warrant

You can bet your last dollar the lapdog media won’t call him on this.

Via Guardian:

Top secret documents submitted to the court that oversees surveillance by US intelligence agencies show the judges have signed off on broad orders which allow the NSA to make use of information “inadvertently” collected from domestic US communications without a warrant.
The Guardian is publishing in full two documents submitted to the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (known as the Fisa court), signed by Attorney General Eric Holder and stamped 29 July 2009. They detail the procedures the NSA is required to follow to target “non-US persons” under its foreign intelligence powers and what the agency does to minimize data collected on US citizens and residents in the course of that surveillance.
The documents show that even under authorities governing the collection of foreign intelligence from foreign targets, US communications can still be collected, retained and used.
The procedures cover only part of the NSA’s surveillance of domestic US communications. The bulk collection of domestic call records, as first revealed by the Guardian earlier this month, takes place under rolling court orders issued on the basis of a legal interpretation of a different authority, section 215 of the Patriot Act.
The Fisa court’s oversight role has been referenced many times by Barack Obama and senior intelligence officials as they have sought to reassure the public about surveillance, but the procedures approved by the court have never before been publicly disclosed.
The top secret documents published today detail the circumstances in which data collected on US persons under the foreign intelligence authority must be destroyed, extensive steps analysts must take to try to check targets are outside the US, and reveals how US call records are used to help remove US citizens and residents from data collection.
However, alongside those provisions, the Fisa court-approved policies allow the NSA to:
• Keep data that could potentially contain details of US persons for up to five years;
• Retain and make use of “inadvertently acquired” domestic communications if they contain usable intelligence, information on criminal activity, threat of harm to people or property, are encrypted, or are believed to contain any information relevant to cybersecurity;
• Preserve “foreign intelligence information” contained within attorney-client communications;
• Access the content of communications gathered from “U.S. based machine[s]” or phone numbers in order to establish if targets are located in the US, for the purposes of ceasing further surveillance.
The broad scope of the court orders, and the nature of the procedures set out in the documents, appear to clash with assurances from President Obama and senior intelligence officials that the NSA could not access Americans’ call or email information without warrants.
The documents also show that discretion as to who is actually targeted under the NSA’s foreign surveillance powers lies directly with its own analysts, without recourse to courts or superiors – though a percentage of targeting decisions are reviewed by internal audit teams on a regular basis.
