First, you assume facts not in evidence: our phones and emails are being tapped. Show me the beef.

Then, I'd be more concerned about writing disparaging remarks about Scientology, Illegal Aliens and Islamo Fascists. The Scientologists are a force to be feared, the Illegal Alien forces are coming into their own and like to threaten and coerce to achieve their ends, and we all know about the terrorists, they want to kill us even if we don't bad mouth them.

Tell me more about Scientology threat..

More of The Geminian!!

Are We STILL "Home of the Brave?"

Unless you live in some dictatorship like China, Cuba or Venezuela my guess is that you're probably free to write whatever you like. The only impediment being one's own paranoia..

in feeling somewhat paranoid at all of the unrestricted information that can and will be gathered by our government. One more piece of the paranoia puzzle that also fits this picture is the ability of google to pinpoint our exact home address and sites on the internet who sell our information from something as common as cell phone records and personal information(this was aired on Abc news a couple of nights ago) so it is not only a liberal thing to fear it should strike all Americans of any or no party affiliation with some small amount of uneasiness as to the ease you could be labeled a terrorist or unpatriotic or heaven forbid a communist and a terrorist.

The "Mc Carthy" trial of old should bring some of these ghosts of administrations past to our remembrance. All the laws governing the presidential war powers that congress so readily passed is another thing to consider. Me I'm going to remain in paranoiaville until the year 2008 and a few months.

And of course our blogs are being monitored by big Bushy and company lucky for us they can't control our thoughts yet(or can they?). LOL!~2catdave

Times have changed and so has the constitution. It isn't what it used to be.

I'm not too sure how "policeable" blogs are. There was a recent story about a guy in California who maintained a blog about where to find little girls and the best places to spy on kids and all kinds of other sick perverted pedophilia stuff and the authorities had no recourse. He could continue to write what he wanted for other pedophiles and he continues to do so.

Be more concerned about downloading a song from the internet. When you have actual people that have been arrested for the blogs they post, then I'd start worrying. Until then, I think the government has bigger problems to deal with.
