Why do Neocons defend Bush's USE OF ILLEGAL WIRE TAPS yet, fear the use of implanted tracking devices?

Question

Honestly I am sick and tired of hearing people talk about this "MARK OF THE BEAST BULLSH!T"
I am not supersticious at all and I think GPS locators would be an excellent idea for:

#1 US SOLDIERS
#2 CHILD MOLESTORS/RAPISTS
#3 Children who live in HIGH RISK kidnapping environments
#4 US Journalists in the Middle East
#5 Drug offenders/ sex offenders convicted of felonies
as well as a few others.

It doesn't have to be an implant (I'd perfer it be though) but for Soldiers and journalists, a dog tag or maybe an implant if they wanted one in their arm or buttocks.

Ultimately, if the government is looking for you, they can find you very quickly using phone records and credit card records etc - so to me the whole idea of an implant ISN'T AS SCARY as the idea of the government monitoring my conversations and spending (WHICH ALLREADY HAPPENS NOW)

Why do these idiot Neocons defend Bush's ILLEGAL, IMPEACHABLE wire tapping but, shudder at the thought of implants?

Answer 1

I think both wiretapping and implanted tracking devices are stupid, and unconstitutional... I do agree however that it is a good idea for soldiers as a dog tag, not implanted... And most people already have a tracking device, it's called a cell phone, and if necessary it can be used to track anyone...

Answer 2

The problem with radio tags is that they can be tracked, including by enemy forces. So, putting tags on soldiers or journalists will only lead to far more deaths.

And radio trackers are used for many criminals on parole, where they are considered a danger and where there is a need to monitor. But they are also expensive and there are other concerns that mean it can't just be implemented across the board.

As far as the private uses for children, those options are also already available and in private use. But it's not something the government can or should mandate.

{EDIT to Mr.Boof} Your argument is spurious for two reasons.

First, it fails to recognize the fundamental fact that England and the US have different laws, so what is legal in England may still be illegal in the US.

Second, the wiretapping program has been found illegal by a federal judge. I realize that most people don't really care about judicial rulings unless they say what you want them to say. But that's the law. And if you bother to read either the legal ruling or the text of the underlying laws that were broken, you'll see that there was never any doubt that the program was illegal. Bush is just arguing that he has the right to break the laws, not that he didn't break them.

Answer 3

The 'warrantless wiretaps' are neither warrentless nor illegal. The constitution protects against 'unreasonable searches and seizures. Nowhere does it require that a warrant is issued by a judge. The constitution doesn't even say a judge can issue a warrant. These opposed to the program have never said the 'searches' are unreasonable. They just claim the administration should get warrants.

coragryph: I gave your answer a positive rating. However, your comments about the judge ruling the program is illegal are wrong. If you read the ruling and the underlying Constitutional language, the ruling is wrong. President Bush has NEVER argued he can break the law. He consistently states that the actions he authorized ARE legal.

Before any one asks, yes, I did say a ferderal judge is wrong on an matter of law. Having informed opinions on that type of issue is the duty of all citizens.

Answer 4

Up yours, tough guy. The "illegal wiretaps" are exactly the kind of thing that the Brits used to stop the attack on the trans-Atlantic flights last week. I don't want an implant in me, but if you liberal idiots keep telling the enemy what we are trying to do to stop them, you may want to invest in several. Then all of your body parts can be found and dumped in a box with the rest of you if a suicide bomber goes off next to you. You jerks are making the enemies job a whole lot easier.
And by the way - they aren't wiretaps, and they aren't illegal - NOT IMPEACHABLE, FOOL!!

Answer 5

The Neo-Cons want to form a one world Government aka new world order. They aren't opposed to microchips and are pushing for it to be used for everybody. You won't to be able to buy or sell without this chip. Big Brother can watch and monitor you whenever, and if your not a friend of Big Brother they can shut down your chip so you won't even exist.

It's FEAR and SCARE that Bush and the Neo-Cons are using to slowly take away our freedoms and privacy's under the disguise of "national security". Click on these links and you'll all have your answer. http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=3710767957407328313&q=label%3Aterrorism

Answer 6

If you watch only one conspiracy documentary ever, make it this one. This just might be the best introductory video out there. Understand that every claim made in this is fact, not opinion, no matter how wild it sounds. It's all easily verifiable through mainstream news archives and public documents.
