Wasting Time With Alex
This is what democrats have planned for us..
The left has been crying about government abuse of power ever since president Bush took actions to stop America’s enemies from abusing our system. I could never understand what worried democrats so much until they became ruthless about winning this coming election and started doing things like this and this with the help from the media:
“State and local officials are investigating if state and law-enforcement computer systems were illegally accessed when they were tapped for personal information about “Joe the Plumber.” Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher became part of the national political lexicon Oct. 15 when Republican presidential candidate John McCain mentioned him frequently during his final debate with Democrat Barack Obama. The 34-year-old from the Toledo suburb of Holland is held out by McCain as an example of an American who would be harmed by Obama’s tax proposals.
Public records requested by The Dispatch disclose that information on Wurzelbacher’s driver’s license or his sport-utility vehicle was pulled from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles database three times shortly after the debate. Information on Wurzelbacher was accessed by accounts assigned to the office of Ohio Attorney General Nancy H. Rogers, the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency and the Toledo Police Department. It has not been determined who checked on Wurzelbacher, or why. Direct access to driver’s license and vehicle registration information from BMV computers is restricted to legitimate law enforcement and government business.
Paul Lindsay, Ohio spokesman for the McCain campaign, attempted to portray the inquiries as politically motivated. “It’s outrageous to see how quickly Barack Obama’s allies would abuse government power in an attempt to smear a private citizen who dared to ask a legitimate question,” he said.
If this was a republican investigating a democrat you can bet your behind this would be top story. It would receive coverage 24/7. We would be told about how fascistic this kind of thing was and be told about the abuses of power in government. But this, not being the first by the way, is something democrats have done. And so it is being brushed off and they are pretending it is no big deal because a court has not rendered a verdict yet. When democrats accuse the gig is up. When democrats are accused it means nothing. And if they are found guilty, they wear it as a badge of honor.
Anyway, do not stand in their way and do not ask hard questions or else. These are collectivists. They believe they are smarter and know best what everyone needs. Sooner or later it will come to this kind of stuff. And our media has abandoned their role of watchdog, albeit a biased one, in favor of rooting for their political goals and guy. Even the democrats think this is a bad thing.
Be afraid, be very afraid.
