This is what happens when a mildly un-hinged former Marine, Ivy Leaguer, and university professor bags it all for a surfboard and a sleeping bag in the back of an ancient pickup truck just to follow the waves.

Gosh, That's Just Heart-Breaking
Secret-court judges upset at portrayal of ‘collaboration’ with government
Again, it's all about secrecy and control; or secret control.

Yes. Next Question, Please.
Is Obama Collecting Data on Gun Owners?
As many have noticed, and not just the chronically paranoid, the current administration wants as much common control as possible, thus they desire to remove not only all avenues of choice, but anything that might cause the commoners to even feel that they have any power to resist the government and its cronies.
Some background here:

I'm Sorry, But There Is Something Terribly Wrong With These People
You know, as in more than corrupt. Something much more akin to the traditional [that is, not Hollywood's] definition of evil.
First thing in the morning, Gregory Roseman, Deputy Director of Acquisitions (whatever that means), became the second IRS official to take the Fifth Amendment, after he was questioned about awarding the largest contract in IRS history, totaling some half a billion dollars, to his close friend Braulio Castillo, who qualified under a federal “set aside” program favoring disadvantaged groups — in this case, disabled veterans. For the purposes of federal contracting, Mr. Castillo is a “disabled veteran” because he twisted his ankle during a football game at the U.S. Military Academy prep school 27 years ago. How he overcame this crippling disability to win a half-billion-dollar IRS contract is the heartwarming stuff of an inspiring Lifetime TV movie.
More here:
"Instead, he struck down the Defense of Marriage Act on the grounds that those responsible for it were motivated by an “improper animus” against a “politically unpopular group” they wished to “disparage,” “demean,” and “humiliate” as “unworthy.” What stump-toothed knuckle-dragging inbred swamp-dwellers from which hellish Bible Belt redoubt would do such a thing? Well, fortunately, we have their names on the record: The DOMA legislators who were driven by their need to “harm” gay people include notorious homophobe Democrats Chuck Schumer, Pat Leahy, Harry Reid, Joe Biden, and the virulent anti-gay hater who signed it into law, Bill Clinton."

Relax, Let The Professionals Handle The Guns.
A group of state Alcoholic Beverage Control agents clad in plainclothes approached her, suspecting the blue carton of LaCroix sparkling water to be a 12-pack of beer. Police say one of the agents jumped on the hood of her car. She says one drew a gun. Unsure of who they were, Daly tried to flee the darkened parking lot.
Don't worry, citizen. Law enforcement will protect you from wild co-eds purchasing...bottled water and cookie dough?
Really, even if she had bought beer illegally, is that really when you pull a gun on someone?

The "Hacker" Who Never Hacked
Obama dismissed Snowden as a “29-year-old hacker” during a press conference in Senegal and said the damage was done when Snowden leaked information about the National Security Agency's data-mining programs to the press.
He wasn't a "hacker", as he didn't have to hack into US security information. He was a US govt contractor who had presumably passed security tests and was given complete access to secret files. He has reported on US hacking, however, so maybe that's what has the prez confused.
