Tacit approval is being given to neocon bloggers, by talk radio and people like Jessica McBride, to pry into the private affairs of individuals like the fellow who made the intemperate remarks to the soldier. He and the company he worked for are now being "investigated" by some, including Peter DiGaudio (author of Texas Hold ‘em Blogger) and by a blog named, Euphoric Reality. This blog lists not only the name of the person who made the comment, but the names, ages, jobs held, etc. of other people associated with the company. There is much more information posted, so it is best to just jump over to the site using the link provided. They’re frightening in their disregard for others … scary in the delusion they are performing the job of the MSM … they are nothing more than vigilantes.
What is frightening is these people have no qualms about abusing technology to “out” their fellow citizens. None! These people who are being attacked have a right not only to privacy but to a presumption of innocence before guilt, whether citizens or legal aliens. They are being electronically raped before our eyes. One is being raped for engaging in a freedom of speech exercise (reprehensible though it was) and the others for being associated with him.
These bloggers, children really in their regard, remind me of this quote from George Orwell’s epic, 1984:
"Nearly all children nowadays were horrible. What was worst of all was that by means of such organizations as the Spies they were systematically turned into ungovernable little savages, and yet this produced in them no tendency whatever to rebel against the discipline of the Party. On the contrary, they adored the Party and everything connected with it... All their ferocity was turned outwards, against the enemies of the State, against foreigners, traitors, saboteurs, thought-criminals. It was almost normal for people over thirty to be frightened of their own children."
Be very frightened citizens. Be frightened of these self-proclaimed patriots. They are the real traitors to the American idea.
Oh, Jessica McBride provides another reason why she should not be teaching journalism. Regarding the issue examined above, she had this to say:
They raise a good question about the terminated employee. Who is it?

Uhnnnhhh...yeah.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I'm not a fanatic about maintaining anonymity, I don't publish my name on the blog.
Regardless, I have been identified twice by LEFTIES in blog-postings.
It goes both ways.
You will notice that nowhere do I say that "conservatives" are responsible, just the two sites involved.
ReplyDeleteI acknowledge that sometimes I go overboard with all-inclusive rants against conservatives and am attempting to scale back my abuse so some of the finer members of that persuausion, such as yourself, are not offended.
Well, I'll try most of the time.
