As Albee Would Say: Sad, Sad, Sad

by AltHippo @ 12:46 am. Filed under Uncategorized

Washington Post:

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security tracked the protest plans of a peaceful Washington area antiwar group and passed the information to the Maryland State Police, which had previously labeled the activists as terrorists in an intelligence file.

The federal agency obtained two e-mails containing plans for upcoming demonstrations at a military recruiting center in Silver Spring in 2005, the first indication that DHS might have worked with the police to monitor advocacy groups. The notification by DHS appears in a state police file on the DC Anti-War Network, or DAWN, provided to The Washington Post under the Public Information Act.

For future reference. Those who want to argue that Obama is 2% less evil than Bush, please spare me the aggravation of your whining tone.
