In a very familiar sounding mantra, the NSA stated in a legal filing to a federal court last Friday that it’s ‘too big to comply with the law’.
“ [A]ttempts to fully comply with the Court’s June 5 Order would be a massive and uncertain endeavor because the NSA may have to shut down all databases and systems that contain Section 702 information in an effort to comply.” the filing reads.
The filing comes from a lawsuit filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which is challenging the NSA’s warrantless collection of American citizen’s private data.
So…
– We bailed out private banks with tax payer money because they were ‘too big to fail’
– The bankers are also ‘too big to jail‘ so nobody has gone to prison for trashing our economy and commiting crimes like money laundering to drug cartels. But, like Eric Holder says, “I am concerned that the size of some of these institutions becomes so large that it does become difficult for us to prosecute them when we are hit with indications that if you do prosecute, if you do bring a criminal charge, it will have a negative impact on the national economy, perhaps even the world economy.”
– Now the NSA, following the successful excuse used to cover the banksters, states that it is ‘too big to be lawful’.
Anyone see a disturbing pattern here?
Well then you need to be eliminated!
Sounds like the IRS, the attorney genital and several other gov. agencies with blood on their hands. OK, some don’t have blood on their hands. They just spew bull$#%&!@* every chance they get. What ever became of all that “transparency” we were sold. And you can keep your doctor too.
if they cant comply with the law , then we don’t need the expense of keeping them around !!
Too bad!
Yell right.
sounds like the nsa needs to be shut down and dismantled
Disband the corrupt agency
So wrong!
Do away with the NSA
If they are too big to obey the law, then they should be disbanded.
