DiFi Will Never Quit on the NSA

She's still fighting to expand the NSA's powers. Because that seems to be her mission in life, to let the NSA do whatever the fuck it wants to.
As compared to the Cybersecurity Act the Senate considered in July, 2012, the bill would dismantle many hard-fought privacy protections that had improved that legislation as it moved to the Senate floor. Indeed, the bill seems to disregard the revelations about surveillance conducted by the National Security Agency both within the U.S. and includes no new civil liberties protections responsive to those disclosures.
of course, it's not just Lady DiFi who is trying to pull the curtain back over the NSA's fuckery. She's getting lots of help from her fellow Statist, Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Nuremberg). And MTAHNS has got its greasy paws in the mix, as well.

More and more, I am coming to the belief that about all that can be done is to keep one's head down and wait for the whole mess to come crashing down. A country whose government spies and monitors its citizenry is not a free nation, regardless of what fine words are enshrined in its constitution.
