<<BREAKING>>Executive order on cybersecurity coming after State of the Union address

I guess we all know what he meant by saying ~ I will have more leeway after the election.
It just keeps getting more and more clear now. Who would have thought all this would be going on just a year or two ago.

Um I think about 47% of us thought this is exactly what would happen a year or two ago

More like Goldman Sachs won the electoral college. ~$heopleNation

just loven this OBAMAination time period. can't get stuff he wants passed because too many people DON'T WANT IT? that's cool with him he'll just make an executive order, and force it on everybody. he IS acting like a dictator in the way he is getting things done.

here is something rather sad, one of the OP's sources had a cute poll question put up.

Politics poll:
Executive actions Has President Obama become too agressive in his use of executive actions with several more options for working around Congress expected this week?
Yes 39%
No 61%
Total Votes: 781

why can't people see that he is ABUSING his power? looking at these numbers people would rather have him do their thinking for them i guess, rather than have to think for themselves.

1. I didn't think people just voted for Presidential candidates because of the colour of their skin.

2. Even if people did vote for a Presidential candidate because of the colour of their skin, then McCain should have won 2008, let alone Romney in 2012 because white Americans are the statistical majority across the country.

3. Fail.

A true dictatorship? Tell that to the North Korean people.

Can you travel freely? Can you own a television? Can you surf the net freely?

Yep, really sounds like an oppressive dictatorship... How have the elections been - oh wait, you even have elections?! My...

your facts are messed up dude lol,

From the Herald Post article...

"President Obama is considering a series of new executive actions aimed at working around a recalcitrant Congress, including policies that could allow struggling homeowners to refinance their mortgages, provide new protections for gays and lesbians, make buildings more energy-efficient and toughen regulations for coal-fired power plants, according to people outside the White House involved in discussions on the issues."

So...gonna drive another stake into the hearts of American Coal miners...nice...

Sometimes ya gotta shake your head in wonder...

Then you missed hearing about the white folks saying that they voted for Obama to be a part of history (electing the first black president) and or to prove to their friends that they arent racist..

one thing to remember and keep close behind your eyes is that he's doing exactly what he was put in place to do by the people that really put him there, the same people who've put all the prior presidents there, he's just keeping the ball rolling, just not so subtle or timid this time.
remember directive 51? that's his gift to use from George.

You know, the internet is a beautiful, wonderful thing. A source of connection, inspiration, wealth.

But there isn't just good. There's the bad too. Predators, bullying, and hate speech.

You might want to ignore it and keep at what your doing, and not have any annoyances impeding what you want to do - but tough. No one has the right to use the internet to feed their criminal addictions, such as child pornography if you need an example. No one has the right to use the internet as an outlet to spew hate, harass and demean individual people or groups of people. No and I mean NO forum should exist, for pedophiles to get together and feed one another s depravity. No one has the right to the internet. It's a privilege. One we've abused, and if need be, should be taken away. If you don't like it, stop using it for negativity. We wouldn't need nanny state if we'd just grow up.

There are always consequences for creating things such as the wonder of the web. Ignoring the bad, to protect the good, is just enabling those who use the internet to spread hate, dis-contention, etc. It's a shame. But it needs to be dealt with. Since adults and adolescents alike, seem to think they can and should be able to do what they want, when they want, and how they want - and then do it- you get nasty legislation cropping up to stop the behavior - because some behavior on the internet IS criminal.

Peace,
Cirque

After reading the article I don't see a problem. It's a new world with dire consequences for not protecting our industrial and financial infrastructure. I'm all for it, long past due.....imo

Or

They (government, financial institutions, et al) could have had half a brain and kept their systems and security updated. Instead they intend to fix a problem, that shouldn't exist if they had taken even a moment to be cautious, by doing this.

-----------------------------
I can't wait till the serious computer nerds and cyber overlords decide enough is enough and put the real hurt on these fools. They'll wish for the return of the days of script kiddies. You can't control the internet or the free flow of information, it's too late, and soon it'll be proven a stark reality. It's unfortunate it'll come to that, but what do you expect when the majority of people who own an internet capable device can't properly secure it or do more than push the power button.
