If you scroll down past the Martin distraction below you might have noted that I was pretty much on the fence as to whether Snowden was a Hero or a Traitor.  I see the below comment from our idiot Attorney General and that along with the other bone headed things he and Mr Obama have said now have gotten me convinced that Snowdon is a 'Hero'.
 
Here is what this moron Holder said: WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder has assured the Russian  government that the U.S. has no plans to seek the death penalty for former  National Security Agency systems analyst Edward Snowden.

Although the main thrust of the blog, when started, was 'Impeach Obama', various things have taken place which have some relevance to the original topic and various comments are here at the top of the blog.  If this isn't something you want to wade though then just drop down the blog until you come to items which may be of more interest to you.
 
The widening Black/White divide:

A thin veneer of civility has been peeled away with the excessive Black vitriol resulting from the Zimmerman verdict.

The era of good feelings between Blacks and Whites, built up both during and after the 60-80's Civil Rights movement, was initially put to a test with the Black jury verdict on the June 1994 murders of two White people (Simpson/Goldman) in Los Angeles and the subsequent acquittal of O J Simpson.

However divisive this brutal double murder was, there was no long term diminished effect on the Black/White rapprochement until the year long Zimmerman case. Now a small but significant number of White and Hispanics are re-evaluating their opinions and concluding that they really do not like Blacks.

Our civilizing veneer is now peeling back and opinions are solidifying along racial lines. Blacks are protesting to an unwarranted degree the findings of a jury and Whites are reacting by re-evaluating their acceptance of such a radical Black dialog of condemnation of an entirely proper verdict.

The most obvious signs of this divide are polls showing that confidence in race relations is significantly down over ten years ago and also more visibly, the almost total lack of any White representation at the claimed 100 Martin rallies around the country.

A new era of strained race relations is now upon us and the previous almost solid confidence in a harmonious relationship between the races is now at an abrupt end.

MARTIN RALLIES ARE A BUST
 
News reports from around the country report only 'hundreds' of people turning out for the various rallys.  One in NYC was suppose to have had 200 attend.  One media headline reads:  "Whites are mostly missing at Trayvon Martin rallies" The only one to seem pleased to be there was the
political gadfly and race baiter Mr. Al Sharpton who attends any function that has a camera present.  Sharpton couldn't wait to elbow his way into a photograph with Mrs Martin and Beyonce and Jay-Z. I am waiting for the Zimmerman rally, which I will attend!

Mr. Obama is watching you!
 
On the Sunday 7/15/13 evening national news for NBC there was a 4 minute segment about a revamped U.S. Mail program that the government has now admitted captures images of both sides of any post card, letter or package which is put into the USPS system.  This covers ALL mail, domestic and international. At one time the post office was considered to be the largest intelligence service of the government and watching the mail goes as far back as the Civil War.  
 
The 'new' aspects of this program may well prove to exceed the authorization for such intelligence gathering as provided by the Congress.  Governmental spokesmen admit that all these images are saved electronically in case any address or name draws future attention.  When/if that happens, the various agencies can pull up information to determine what mail was sent by or received by a person, firm or address.
 
Big Brother has arrived.
The above page is from a FOIA reply from a citizen in Buffalo, NY, who accidently learned that he was a target of this governmental snooping. The relevant text is about the 'Automated Facer Canceller System' (AFCS) and reads in part:  'The AFCS incorporates a 'Mail Isolation Control and Tracking' (MICT) program which photographs and captures an image of every piece that is processed.'  
I
don't know of any simple 'fix' to safeguard privacy but a few common sense things come to mind:
1)   No longer use a return address on your mail.  Such return addresses have long been a feature promoted by the post office so if your correspondent is gone or the address is incorrect you will get your mail back.  You might want to omit any such return address in the future.
2)   Modify your name for incoming bank statements, bills etc.  Rather than using Dr. John J. Smith, ask your bank, utility etc to just use J. Smith.  Don't give out any extra information for the government to copy and file away.
3)   Avoid getting mail at a 'home' address.  This won't help all that much as all mail will still be copied but using a private mail receiving service can't hurt.

I am waiting to hear how Mr. Snowden can be blamed/prosecuted for 'leaking' secrets when retired U.S. General James Cartwright has been leaking secrets about the Stuxnet virus attack on Iranian nuclear facilities in 2010.  Seems that the White House wanted that info leaked to make itself look good and had the General do it.  I smell a coverup coming. Anyone notice a double standard here???? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Misc:   This blog site is about Obama but recent events have brought up an interesting side issue of recently released info about governmental spying that seems in excess of that which is approved by existing legislation.  If you are not interested in this then just skip down a few posts and get back to the real topic here:  'IMPEACH OBAMA'.  Thank you for looking at my little blog. A bit off the blog topic but in the news:
Edward Snowden:  Hero or traitor? Let's sort out some terms right off the bat so we know what is bullshit and what is not.
Traitor - a person who commits treason by betraying his or her country.  Treason - The crime of betraying one's country, esp. by attempting to kill the sovereign or overthrow the government. So Snowden is neither a traitor nor has he committed treason.  People throwing around such terms either have no access to a dictionary or they have some agenda that they are trying to sell you. I said when this story broke that I did not have enough information to know if he was a good guy or a bad guy.  I am still on the fence and I, like you, am watching this develop.
 
Here is something to mull over: If a passerby notices your home is on fire at 3 a.m. and breaks down your front door to enter and wake you up should he then be charged with burglary or vandalism for his efforts to alert you to the danger?
 
This issue really is NOT about Snowden, it is about our government being out of control and snooping into all of our lives and greatly overstepping their authority.  Of the 50 acts of terrorism that have supposedly been stopped by government surveillance only sketchy details on one (perhaps 2) have been provided.  Where is the information on the other 48?  (if there is actually another 48) I have made no decision on Snowden, except that he is no traitor.
