Wow...you really don't see the point, do you? I try not to buy into the hyperbole about how Obama is a socialist, etc., but this scares the shit out of me.
It has the potential for misuse by the citizens doing the reporting and those receiving the information is astounding. Do you really think they would tell us _exactly_ what they plan to do with the information? Or do you think only Republicans lie and shade the truth? This request for citizens to report each other to the government for expressing free speech is a very steep, ice covered slope.
