Judge Leon: “Monsieur l’abbé, I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write.” – Voltaire, 1770

AMERICA IS GETTING VAMPIRE DONE, NOTICE

[sidebar:  NSA & Feinstein, isn't IT 'literate'?!  Aging isn't kind to her, she needs to take up a new line of focus! Wander as a bard from place to place, everywhere in America, hand held cup for alms to her poor IGNORANT FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN?!]

Lawyers described Leon as congenial and thoughtful. "I don't think anyone could fairly characterise him remotely as a radical," said Jameel Jaffer, deputy legal director at the American Civil Liberties Union, which has filed a lawsuit similar to the one on which Leon ruled on Monday. Jaffer said he found the judge's legal reasoning sound and his colourful language compelling. "His metaphors, I think, are quite devastating to the government," he said.The intelligence committee leaders have not introduced their respective bills, but Feinstein has outlined the changes under consideration. They include limiting access to the call database; codifying the requirement that analysts have a “reasonable articulable suspicion” that a phone number is associated with terrorism to query the database; requiring that the FISA court promptly review each such determination; and limiting the retention period for phone records, now five years.

“This program is constitutional,” Feinstein said at a hearing on the issue last month. “It is legal. . . . I also believe that collecting timely and actionable intelligence is critical to our nation’s security.”

KEEP PASSING THIS AROUND UNTIL EVERY ONE HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO READ IT... THIS IS SURE SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.

     THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S CALCULATION OF AVAILABLE SOCIAL SECURITY IS THEY FORGOT TO FIGURE IN THE PEOPLE WHO DIED BEFORE THEY EVER COLLECTED A SOCIAL SECURITY CHECK.  WHERE DID THAT MONEY GO?

     Remember, not only did you and I contribute to Social Security but your employer did, too. It totaled 15% of your income before taxes. If you averaged only $30K over your working life, that's close to $220,500.

     Read that again....

     Did you see where the Government paid in one single penny? We are talking about the money you and your employer put in a Government bank to insure you and I that we would have a retirement check from the money we put in, not the Government.

     Now they are calling the money we put in an entitlement when we reach the age to take it back. If you calculate the future invested value of $4,500 per year (yours & your employer's contribution) at a simple 5% interest (less than what the govt. pays on the money that it borrows), after 49 years of working you'd have $892,919.98.

     If you took out only 3% per year, you'd receive $26,787.60 per year and it would last better than 30 years (until you're 95 if you retire at age 65) and that's with no interest paid on that final amount on deposit! If you bought an annuity and it paid 4% per year, you'd have a lifetime income of $2,976.40 per month.

     Another thing with me.... I have two deceased husbands who died in their 50's, (one was 51 and the other one was 59 before one percent of their social security could be drawn. I worked all my life and am drawing 100% on my own social security). Their S.S. money will never have one cent drawn from what they paid into S.S all their lives.

     THE FOLKS IN WASHINGTON HAVE PULLED OFF A BIGGER PONZI SCHEME THAN BERNIE MADOFF EVER DID.

     Entitlement my foot, I paid cash for my social security insurance! Just because they borrowed the money for other government spending, doesn't make my benefits some kind of charity or handout.

     Remember Congressional benefits? free healthcare, outrageous retirement packages, 67 paid holidays, three weeks paid vacation, unlimited paid sick days. Now that's welfare, and they have the nerve to call my social security retirement payments entitlements?

     We're "broke" and we can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, or Homeless. Yet in the last few months we have provided aid to Haiti, Chile and Turkey. And now Pakistan...home of bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS.

     Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed S.S. income' receive no additional federal aid nor do they get any financial breaks, while our government and religious organizations pour hundreds of billions of $$$ and tons of food to foreign countries.

     They call Social Security and Medicare an entitlement even though most of us have been paying for it all our working lives, and now, when it's time for us to collect, the government is running out of money. Why did the government borrow from it in the first place? It was supposed to be in a locked box, not part of the general fund.

     Sad isn't it?  ….  99% of people won't have the guts to forward this.

     I'm in the 1% -- I just did.

  2. When the leaders are no less than fifty (50) to seventy-five (75) years behind the IT, then the obvious gets confused to 'think' IT isn't controlled via the future - backwards going is not exactly higher intelligence.
