Michael Scott points us to the fact that US Attorneys have requested data on anonymous commenters who commented on an article in the Las Vegas Review-Journal. From the description, it sounds like the feds are fishing for a lot more than they should be allowed to get. The subpoena requested:"full name, date of birth, physical address, gender, ZIP code, password prompts, security questions, telephone numbers and other identifiers ... the IP address," of everyone who commented

If politicians , corporations , and government officials do not like what is said about them , they should conduct themselves so as to not be offensive or get into another profession , out of the public eye . Or move to a country that censors speech in a way they want .

That is not the nature of power.
It has always been a matter of the haves v the have nots and that is never going to change. Most we can do is change our edge.

People who post on Current regularly with negative outlook on the government are probably on their watch list already.

I only get stuck going when the wife drags me to it. Usually if I get dragged to it she wants to make a big purchase and wants me to see it first. I don't know why she does it, it's not like I could talk her out of buying it.

Anyone who didn't see this coming is blind. There have been warnings about the GOV doing this type of thing for years......so many times they have been called conspiracy therories. Once again it looks like the fools who are so quick to cry...." conspiracy therory" are wrong again. What so called "conspiracy" will be proven to be true next? It's only a matter of time till obama proves the "conspiracy therory nut jobs" are right again and for that I must say thanks to him.

Are these the same US Attorneys who justified torture? Who the hell do they think they are? If I were from the Las Vegas Review, I'd tell them to take their sub-penis and go f*ck themselves!!! Don't tread on me.
