Hats off to you, trollercoaster, two scary (totalitarian) articles. Bravo.
I yesterday read the NY Post one about the various databases that O's team is preparing. Forced desegregation, coercion on towns to ruin themselves. Preparation to go after whomever they choose. What kind of liberty is that?
And I smiled when I saw the crooksandliars.com name of their site. Then I read the piece on Wesley Clark's proposal. Scary! Gen. Clark has proposed some weird shit since he retired, may we now see "The Real Wesley Clark" now that he no longer is in the military.

Next step is that they fear the same also in private, encrypted communication, because they can not trust their own friends or relatives not to flag them.
