A good question: Hero or traitor? The government shouldn't be able to spy on us, unchecked.
When I think of Chief Justice Roberts' Obamacare opinion, I wonder if the government's information gathering apparatus had been used to compel the affirmative opinion.

WATCH: AS HEARD ON RUSH, OBAMA STAFFERS STRAND OBAMA WITHOUT HIS REMARKS - OH DEAR!
This is a presidential break down in front of the press: "Oh dear".
Why is this guy President if he doesn't know the subject matter, and thus, can't speak intelligently without having his words written for him?
This President needs to be told what to say. This President can't go off script, because every time he does, he screws up. Still, it is kind of funny seeing what a President looks like when he looks like a deer caught in headlights at the thought of having to speak extemporaneously.

IS A TOTALITARIAN GOVERNMENT MACHINE BEING TURNED ON BEFORE OUR EYES?
I don't know the answer to that question, but I wonder.
Today we are witnessing the government’s implementation of a citizen-monitoring police state that has little regard for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
I just heard President Obama say the spy program only applies to foreigners. Do you believe that when tens of millions of American Verizon phone records were already gathered?
So, the government had a secret program of collecting every email, phone call, web search and we are supposed to be passive, submissive and approving? I don’t think so.
I think they are nudging us. I think they want the bottom (that's us) to rise up, as in Van Jones’ explained plan for revolution where the top comes down, the bottom rises up, and its turned inside-out.
Will there be American citizens rising up against the unwarranted and unprecedented intrusions into their privacy?
I think we citizens need to be very careful how we react to the illegal actions of our government. Any protest must remain civil and any violence must not be initiated by any of us.
Yes, we should protest, but we can’t let them nudge us into doing anything stupid. This would give them the reason they are looking for to come down on us.

According to Greenwald, the Obama admin has bullied and threatened anyone who dared expose PRISM.
The Gateway Pundit reported:
“There is a massive apparatus within the United States government that with complete secrecy has been building this enormous structure that has only one goal,” Greenwald said on CNN’s “Piers Morgan Live” on Thursday.
“And that is to destroy privacy and anonymity not just in the United States but around the world.”
Greenwald’s subsequent comments came just hours after The Guardian and The Washington Post both broke another bombshell report detailing a program dubbed as “PRISM.” According to the reports, the program involves the National Security Agency and FBI tapping into the servers of nine leading Internet companies to extract information.

Liberty High School graduate and valedictorian Roy Costner IV dispensed with his school district's policy to keep God out of his graduation ceremony. GOOD FOR HIM!
This kid, this young man, deserves a citizenship award for having the courage to stand in the face of tyranny and holding up the light of the Lord for everyone to see... SEE STORY BELOW.
The Blaze reported:
The story and video of a high school valedictorian from South Carolina who, to the surprise of his graduation audience, invoked God and uttered the Lord’s prayer, has gone viral. Roy Costner IV spoke with TheBlaze about his speech and the public’s intense reaction to it.
Costner, 18, had planned to deliver a secular address devoid of any mention of the Almighty, but he made a bold and controversial decision to ignore his school district’s mandate that God not be mentioned.
The former Liberty High School student said that his decision to say the prayer was pre-planned — something that he decided to do as an encouragement to his community. Plus, his devotion to a higher power helped fuel the contentious action. READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE AT THE BLAZE - CLICK HERE!

Sen. Lindsey Graham isn't Sure If Bloggers Deserve “First Amendment Protection”
RED FLAG NEWS REPORTED:
Whether bloggers count as journalists has mostly been a matter of esoterics for reporter types. But as Congress weighs a media shield law in response to the Associated Press/Justice Department subpoena scandal, the question is gaining an urgency that lawmakers are finding hard to ignore as they turn to writing the bill.
Speaking to reporters Tuesday, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., took on the issue—and stumbled.
“Who is a journalist is a question we need to ask ourselves,” he said. “Is any blogger out there saying anything—do they deserve First Amendment protection? These are the issues of our times.”
The verbal slipup aside (of course bloggers are covered under the Bill of Rights!), Graham’s riffing on constitutional law exposes one of the age-old tensions between journalism as a product and journalism as an activity. What Graham really meant to ask was whether bloggers deserve the specific protections of the First Amendment that are granted to the press. But as the line between blogger and journalist has blurred, a far more relevant challenge is figuring out whether those protections apply to the behavior of finding and passing on (sometimes secret) information, or if they apply only to people with little plastic ID badges to prove their affiliation.

CONSERVABLOGGER COMMENT:
How about this question, Mr. Graham? Aren't American bloggers American citizens? Since when is it okay to trample the First Amendment? Let me tell you something you oaf, my voice will not be silenced!
I'm so sick of the propaganda coming from the media that I've turned them off in exchange for finding and reporting the truth myself, wherever I can find it.

WATCH: Ridiculous! School tells 3 year old Deaf Boy 'Change your Name or Change your School'
CONSERVABLOGGER COMMENT:
One would believe that an institution of learning might have a little common sense. But, imagine if the boy taught his class mates how to sign his name... we'd have a classroom of kids going around pointing at each other.... OMG! Where's the humanity?
This is ridiculous, yet crafty, bull crap designed to indoctrinate children into being opposed to firearms, later, when they are adults.
Hunter Spanjer says his name with a certain special hand gesture, but at just three and a half years old, he may have to change it.
"He's deaf, and his name sign, they say, is a violation of their weapons policy," explained Hunter's father, Brian Spanjer.
Grand Island's "Weapons in Schools" Board Policy 8470 forbids "any instrument...that looks like a weapon," But a three year-old's hands?
"Anybody that I have talked to thinks this is absolutely ridiculous. This is not threatening in any way," said Hunter's grandmother Janet Logue.
"It's a symbol. It's an actual sign, a registered sign, through S.E.E.," Brian Spanjer said.
S.E.E. stands for Signing Exact English, Hunter's sign language. Hunter's name gesture is modified with crossed-fingers to show it is uniquely his own.
"We are working with the parents to come to the best solution we can for the child," said Jack Sheard, Grand Island Public Schools spokesperson.
That's just about all GIPS officials will say for now.
Meantime, Hunter's parents say that by Monday, lawyers from the National Association of the Deaf are likely to weigh in for Hunter's right to sign his own name.
Despite whatever rules and regulations may exist, some Grand Islanders we spoke with said they don't think it's right to make a three year-old change the way he says his name.
"It's his name. It's not like he's going to bring a gun to school when he's three years old," commented Dana Schwieger.
"I find it very difficult to believe that the sign language that shows his name resembles a gun in any way would even enter a child's mind," Grand Island resident Fredda Bartenbach reflected.
But for now, that's a discussion between the Spanjers and Grand Island Public Schools officials.

WATCH: Monster Sebelius Won't Help Dying 10 year old Girl: 'Someone Lives And Someone Dies'
Incredible! Health and Human Services
Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said today that "someone lives and someone
dies" when asked to waive a regulation that stands in the way of Sarah
Murnaghan, a 10-year-old girl, from receiving an adult lung that will
save her life.
"Well, I would suggest sir- that again- that this is an incredibly agonizing situation where someone lives and someone dies," says Sebelius.
Without the transplant, Sarah has an estimated three to five weeks to live. Sebelius has the power to waive the federal regulation and help the girl. (Sebelius makes the comment around 2:13 in the video.
She's a monster if she allows this girl to die.

CAPITAL POLICE PULLING AN 'IRS' ON TEA PARTY D.C. RALLY PERMIT APPLICATION
Shut down the Tea Party. Don't allow them the opportunity to gather momentum again. Are these orders that might have been given by the dear President himself? When they shut the Tea Party down, they shut the American citizens down. The Tea Party is America, and Obama hats the America they stand for.
The Gateway Pundit reported:
The Tea Party Patriots were planning a rally in Washington DC on Wednesday June 19th.
But they ran into a wall.
The Capitol Police want to see their websites first.
Kevin Mooneyhan from the Tea Party Patriots described this latest Tea Party challenge:
Below is the timeline of events surrounding our June 19th rally at the Capitol. We haven’t done anything to publicize this event yet because we wanted to make sure we had the permit in hand. You know, follow the rules, do the right thing, etc.
Event Date: June 19, 2013
Permit Submitted: 5/22/2013 via fax
Officer Brown contacted me on 5/23 to ask me 2 questions:
If we would have a banner and if so what the dimensions would be and how we would hang it.
If we were going to have buses and to make sure that we coordinated with Union Station since the Capitol couldn’t accommodate buses.
The impression that I got was that it would likely be approved in a few days. She told me, “Hopefully the next time you hear from me, it will be to let you know that the permit is approved.”
The following Tuesday, 5/28/13 I reached out to Officer Brown for an update and she told me that it had been submitted upstairs for approval and that 3 sargeants still had to sign off on it. She didn’t know when the final approval would be.
June 4, 2013: I contacted Officer Brown again to inquire about the status. She told me that it wasn’t submitted to the higher ups until last Friday, May 31, 2013. This contradicted the earlier phone call. She said she would follow up on it and contact me later this afternoon. I didn’t confront her about the conflict of information because at the time I didn’t have the exact dates of when I communicated with her. But her comments made me suspicious, which is why I went back to look at the dates that I made contact.
June 4, 2013: I reached out to some contacts I have on in Congressional offices to see if there was anyway that they could help speed along the process. The response they received from Captiol Police was that they wouldn’t speak to them because they weren’t the party who submitted the application.
June, 4 2013: Jerry Bell contacted me to inquire about the permit.
Questions asked:
** Is the purpose of your event to promote government accountability?
My answer was yes. This was also indicated on the application
** Have you ever had an event on Capitol grounds before? If so, when was the last one?
My answer was yes and March of 2012.
** Have you ever had any opposition to your cause show up at these events in the past?
My answer – possibly. If there was any opposition it was a small amount. Nothing ever escalated beyond civil conversation.
** Do you know of any opposition that will be at your June 19th event?
My answer – not at this time because we haven’t publicized the event yet because we wanted to make sure we secured the permit first.
** Have you invited any members of Congress to the June 19th event?
My answer – I have informed some Members of Congress, but official invites have not been extended because we are waiting for approval of the permit.
** Does your organization have any social media sites like Twitter or Instagram? I know that you have a Facebook page.
My response – yes we do, but I’m not sure why this is relevant to the application.
Then he thanked me for my answers. Then I asked when he thought it might be approved and I went into details about this permit, including the timeline of events, and he asked me to submit the timeline to him in writing.
June 4, 2013: Officer Brown called me back to follow up from this morning. She said the permit still hasn’t been submitted, it still needs to be signed off on, but she sees no reason why it wouldn’t be approved. She then said it would be okay to go ahead and send out invitations to the event.
A copy of this permit is attached. You can see in the “Timeliness of Application” section that it states, “Applications must be submitted at least one hundred twenty (120) hours, or five (5)
days, in advance of the activity to guarantee processing. Applications will be accepted up to one (1) year in advance. Additionally, demonstration applications must satisfy all requirements stated herein before processing can be completed; therefore it is imperative that the spokesperson responds promptly to all queries from the Special Events Coordinator.” This seems to indicate that it shouldn’t take more than 5 days to receive an approval or denial of the application. It has been nearly 2 weeks for this application and still no approval or denial.
More… Event Date: October 12, 2013
Permit Submitted: April 29, 2013
We also applied for another permit for 10/12/13 and haven’t heard anything back about that permit. That permit was submitted by Darcy Parker of Tea Party Patriots on 4/29/2013. On 5/1/2013, she called to ensure they received the application. On 5/9/2013 she called and spoke to Officer Nichols who indicated the application was received, but there was no way to tell when we would hear back about it. That is the last communication we have had regarding that permit. This permit has been outstanding for over 5 weeks and we still haven’t heard anything.

WATCH: DARRELL ISSA INTERVIEW - OBAMA ADMINISTRATION ORDERED CONSERVATIVE TARGETING
WASHINGTON -- The Internal Revenue Service agents who inappropriately targeted conservative groups had been following orders from the Obama administration, House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) said on Sunday.
And he called the administration's top spokesman a liar.
Last month the IRS said it had identified two "rogue agents" in the department's Cincinnati office who were overly aggressive in the handling of Tea Party groups seeking tax-exempt status. Issa said his committee has found otherwise.
"As late as last week the administration's still trying to say there's a few rogue agents in Cincinnati when in fact the indication is they were directly being ordered from Washington," Issa told Candy Crowley on CNN's "State of the Union."
Issa's committee provided CNN partial transcripts of its interviews with Cincinnati IRS agents. Crowley read from one transcript in which an investigator asked an agent if directions for extra Tea Party scrutiny had emanated from Washington. "I believe so," the agent said.
Crowley was not impressed. "It's totally not definitive," she said of the excerpt.
"That one isn't," Issa said. "But I will tell you, one of the agents asked for and got a transfer because that person was so uncomfortable that they wanted out of it."
Issa said his committee would eventually release the full transcripts. In the meantime, he said, at least he isn't a liar like White House spokesman Jay Carney.
"Their paid liar, their spokesperson -- picture behind -- he's still making up things about what happens and calling this a local rogue," Issa said while gesturing to an image of Carney behind Crowley.
