Obama's Internet passport

EDITORIAL: Obama's Internet passport - Washington Times
"The White House cybersecurity adviser joined Commerce Secretary Gary Locke on Jan. 7 to announce what amounts to a national ID card for the Internet.

....Their plan is straightforward.
Instead of logging onto Facebook or one's bank using separate passwords established with each individual company or website, the White House will take the lead in developing what it calls an "identity ecosystem" that will centralize personal information and credentials.
This government-approved system would issue a smart card or similar device that would confirm an individual's identity when making online credit-card purchases, accessing electronic health care records, posting "anonymous" blog entries or even logging onto one's own home computer, according to administration documents."

Imagine if this was the Bush administration.

What is with libs who scream bloody murder at imagined swat teams in libraries but not a peep when the current regime wants into every computer and phone in the land?


It is not so frightening that Omama and his henchmen would concoct such a plan.
We've read their books and listened to their speeches.

What is terrifying is the entire MSM and all the usual free speech/privacy voices who went postal with the mild in comparison, Patriot Act are totally silent.


Does the left really prefer totalitarian government if it's run by Obama?


The perfect merge of the IRS and the thought police.

1984 anyone?
