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?
you willobey the people the evil in washington is about to end
just like hitler not only do they think they are to big to obey the law they think they can just change it to suit their needs
Maybe they should bomb all their networks and then the buildings housing the files, etc., and then they will not have a problem with complying with the law. They are NOT to big to comply with the law. They are too big for their pants!! They think they are above the law!
that’s going to Germany coming on Obama must think he’s Hitler
The fact that the NSA has been allowed to get so big should have been a red flag to those in congress who supposedly make the law, that their monster was out of control. Congress however was too busy making backroom deals, selling votes, getting richer and more powerful in their own right, to care about the monster they had unleashed on the American people. While I can think of many crimes and scandals that have arisen out of this administration, and at least a hundred times as many speeches from congress condemning these scandals, I can’t think of one positive action, taken by this congress, to hold anyone accountable.
Yep, Just like Obama. lets get these crooks 7 executives out of the payroll. perhaps hit them where it hurts might finally wise them up.
If you are too big to follow the law then we need to shut your sorry ass down..
L
Good shut it down.
IT IS TIME TO SHOW THEM THEY ARE NOT ABOVE THE LAW. JUST GO TO THE FIRST OFFICE AND PUT THEM ALL IN JAIL, AND KEEP DOING IT TILL THEY ARE ALL IN JAIL
