BEHOLD: People Signing A Petition To Get An Orwellian Police State Enacted Here In The US (video)

"We're petitioning to just keep the police state, and implement some more Orwellian measures to keep the community safe, for the Nazi-style police state."
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson

Betcha none of them know from Orwell.  You'd have thought "Nazi-style" would have alarmed them, but, nope.  Trade liberty for "safety".

WTH was this taken?

San Diego. You know, that conservative military city.

How in the hell did Dice stifle the urge to slap the living daylights out of these stupid, stupid people.

I've heard Dice describe his technique. He said the two most important elements are to use that NPR voice, and to work "for Obama" (or something similar) into the question. Basically they are agreeable to anything if it is phrased as being something beneficial to Obama.
