Send them some love. (Well maybe this doesn't qualify.)
A love letter to the NSA agent who is monitoring my online activity.

Perhaps you can see the difference.
The Change and Transparency is part of the propaganda they hand to us when they do the exact opposite.
Obama said he was going to rein in the corrupt bankers and make government as transparent as possible. He did the opposite - Hegelian Dialect.

Just as Bush was all for spreading "Freedom and Democracy" while doing the opposite by implementing the Patriot Act against American's and everyone else abroad.

Hope and Change - Lies
They hate us for our Freedoms - Lies

On the flip side, obama has had 5 years to rein them in, and has done NOTHING! Nor has he asked Congress to do anything.

And not just asking, but paying the rapist to do it.

Remember, we PAY these Big Government goons to spy on us. They do it while getting PAID by the taxpayers.

We all hope to work for the NSA. That way we can spy on our friends and our enemies with impunity. We can check up on our wives and girlfriends too.

Does that make any sense at all?
The cost is huge. They have a huge staff and almost unlimited secret budget.

Meanwhile, hard working American taxpayers are trying to make ends meet. But Obama doesn't care. He would rather feed the NSA money machine than reduce taxes for hard working Americans.
