With Congress on the verge of outlining new parameters for National Security Agency eavesdropping between suspicious foreigners and Americans, lawmakers are leaving largely untouched a host of government programs that critics say involves far more domestic surveillance than the wiretaps they sought to remedy.

These programs – most of them highly classified – are run by an alphabet soup of federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies. They sift, store and analyze the communications, spending habits and travel patterns of U.S. citizens, searching for suspicious activity.

   Unfortunately, this world has no hope as long as we are looking to current so-called ‘leaders’ to lead us. We don’t need to be led. We need to start leading ourselves —- AWAY from the lunatic, insane world controllers of today.

   The Best way to make this viral is to download “BIT TORRENT”, the file sharing software, and add 1.911 Truth Rising 2.911 In Plane Site 3.Loose Change Final Cut 4.Loose Change 2nd Edition —> And when you are not using your internet, let the Upload speed run at full bandwith and spread this thing like wildfire..

   THIS WILL MAKE A MAJOR DIFFERENCE IN THE COMING MONTHS AS WE NEAR ELECTIONS..

   BIT TORRRENT is a free piece of software you can get at download.com, then go to TorrentReactor.net and download these four documentaries and let people download them like wildfire.. the number will rise by tens of thousands per day and this movement will prevail..

   this software is not like napster in that one user downloads a movie and it only takes a little piece of the movie from each computer so there is no single file that is totally shared..

   Do this and you will watch the number rise by thousands, and let the connection run wild every second that you are not on the net, and while you are sleeping, and OUR MESSAGE WILL BE THE VOICE OF THE MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN THE COMING MONTHS, NOT JUST A NICE “LITTLE” SIZED GROUP.. THE ENTIRE COUNTRY..

   please post any questions if necessary, or ask around..
