Senate Advances Expanded, "Orwellian" Government Surveillance With FISA Amendments, CISPA
DemocracyNow.org - The Senate is closer to renewing controversial measures that critics say would allow the emails and phone calls of US citizens to be monitored without a warrant. The Select Committee on Intelligence has voted to extend controversial amendments to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act that were set to expire at the end of this year. We speak with Michelle Richardson of the American Civil Liberties Union, which has sued over the US government's surveillance practices, saying agencies would be able to tap their communications with clients and sources overseas. We're also joined by William Binney, who served in the National Security Agency for nearly 40 years, including a stint as technical director of its World Geopolitical and Military Analysis Reporting Group. Since retiring from the NSA in 2001, Binney has warned that the NSA's data-mining program has become so vast that it could "create an Orwellian state." "This is a continuation of the mindless legislation that our Congress has been putting out just to justify what they've been doing for a decade or more," Binney says. "Instead of living up to their oath of office [and] defend the Constitution, they've decided to violate the civil liberties and the rights of all US citizens." The Senate is also set to vote soon on the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act — a bill opposed by many civil liberties and privacy groups.

Our America - Civil Liberties
The government should protect the value of individuals and their civil liberties. The government should not intervene in the private lives of individual citizens unnecessarily. Personal liberty and freedom from unwarranted governmental control or regulation should allow law abiding individuals to pursue their own desires as long as they are not causing harm to other people. We are committed to less government, greater liberty and lasting prosperity for America. Gary Johnson serves as the Honorary Chairman of the Our America Initiative: OurAmericaInitiative.com He has been an outspoken advocate for efficient government, lower taxes, winning the war on drug abuse, protection of civil liberties, revitalization of the economy and promoting entrepreneurship and privatization.

"The government has no right to pick through your private information just because that's technologically possible," says American Civil Liberties Union policy counsel and former FBI agent Mike German.

Fireside: Obama Doesn't Care About Civil Liberties
National Defense Authorization Act puts more than 600 billion more dollars towards defense for fiscal year 2012, an amount in itself that deserves questioning, and yet never gets it. But what deserves to be highlighted even more this year is of course a bill that codifies into law, indefinite military detention, even making it legally justifiable for US citizens. Alyona addresses specific concerns and arguments that we've seen.

Economic Vs. Civil Liberties
Students, get a full week of this at a summer seminar: lrnlbty.co Which are more important, economic liberties or civil liberties? The conventional view portrays conservatives as caring more about economic liberties than civil liberties. Liberals, on the other hand, are conventionally viewed as caring about civil liberties more than economic liberties. To Prof. Aeon Skoble, this distinction between economic and civil liberties is fictitious. The influence of market exchanges and civil liberties on one another is inseparable.

PBS Travel Guru Rick Steves: Smoking Pot is "My Civil Liberty"
"I'm a hardworking, tax-paying, kid-raising, church-going citizen of this country," say author and PBS travel host Rick Steves, "and if I work hard all day long and want to go home and relax with a joint, that is my civil liberty." Reason.tv caught up with Steves at Seattle Hempfest in August, where he spoke with Nick Gillespie about marijuana laws and whether his outspoken defense of legalization has effected his books sales, tour bookings, and television career. Seattle Hempfest is an annual event that started in 1991 as a protest against the prohibition of marijuana, the commercial cultivation of non-psychoactive hemp for a variety of uses, and related issues. For 20 years, tens of thousands of people gather each summer to listen to speakers and bands and to show their support for legalizing pot and hemp products. About 4.15 minutes.

Fireside: US Failing on Civil Liberties Post 9/11
This year will be the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks. Alyona expresses that it's important to reflect all the time, not just on anniversaries. And then says how since September 11th of 2001, our civil liberties have been eroding. From the simple things, like security at airports to the more grave offenses like the constant surveillance by our government and the excuses they use to do it without getting a warrant, or without any oversight, much of it ingrained in the Patriot Act that was recently, renewed. Take a look.

Ted Kennedy attacks retroactive immunity for Telecoms
Ted Kennedy gave a great speech denouncing Bush's demand for retroactive immunity for the Telecoms in the new FISA bill... "It's painfully clear what the President's request for retroactive immunity is really about. It's a self-serving attempt to avoid legal and political accountability and keep the American public in the dark about this whole shameful episode. Like the CIA's destruction of videotapes showing potentially criminal conduct, it's a desperate attempt to erase the past. The Senate should see this request for what it is, and reject it. We should pass this amendment to strike Title II from the FISA bill. Our focus should be on protecting national security, our fundamental liberties, and the rule of law—not protecting phone companies that knew they were breaking the law."

Assassinations, Spying and The Constitution: ACLU President Susan Herman Talks Big Govt and Liberty
"All of our elected representatives have to hear from a broad cross section of liberals, libertarians, conservatives--people who just say, 'This is too much big government. We want our government back,'" says American Civil Liberties Union President Susan Herman, author of the new book "Taking Liberties: The War on Terror and the Erosion of American Democracy." How much has the police state expanded since 9/11, and is there any way to stop it? Herman sat down with Reason.tv Editor-in-Chief Nick Gillespie to discuss the this and other questions surrounding the state of liberty in America. Herman notes that while there have been a few minor changes in policy, for the most part there's been a remarkable continuity between the Bush and Obama administrations in terms of their disregard for civil liberties. She makes the case that liberals must make alliances with libertarians and pro-liberty conservatives like Ron Paul and Gary Johnson if there's any hope of curbing the ever-expanding police state. She also discusses the recent assassination of American citizen Anwar Al-Awlaki and the ACLU's role in representing Al-Awlaki's father in court. Interview by Nick Gillespie.

Anonymous vs CISPA: 'Bill fights imaginary threat'
Outcry from Internet users, over the controversial cyber security act 'CISPA', is set to spill onto the streets. The hacker group Anonymous is hitting back in response to the bill by launching what it calls 'Operation Defense Phase two'. CISPA, having passed the US House of Representatives on Friday, is now a step closer to becoming law. It's now heading to the Senate, as the White House continues to threaten a veto of the bill. The act could allow Internet companies to legally share sensitive user information with the American government - a move critics say infringes on privacy and civil liberties. Journalist David Seaman explains how this bill puts everyone at risk. Luke Samuel, from Online Magazine "Spiked" thinks the CISPA bill is one of the latest attempts by the US government to limit the first amendment rights of its citizens.

Mitt Romney Pretends He's Clueless About NDAA , Then Warmongers

Mitt Romney was asked about his opinion regarding the provision which would allow military personnel to detain a US citizen indefinitely which they 'suspect' is involved with terrorism activities. Romney pretends he doesn't know about it, says he would post an analysis on his website (which he never did), and then war mongers in order to scare clueless Americans into giving up their civil liberties to big government.

Journalist, Plaintiff Chris Hedges Hails "Monumental" Ruling on NDAA Indefinite Detention
DemocracyNow.org - In a rare move, a federal judge has struck down part of a controversial law signed by President Obama that gave the government the power to indefinitely detain anyone it considers a terrorism suspect anywhere in the world without charge or trial -- including US citizens. Judge Katherine Forrest of the Southern District of New York ruled the indefinite detention provision of the National Defense Authorization Act likely violates the First and Fifth Amendments of US citizens. We speak with Chris Hedges, a journalist who filed the suit challenging the NDAA along with six others, and Bruce Afran, the group's attorney. "This is another window into the steady assault against civil liberties," Hedges says. "What makes [the ruling] so monumental is that finally, we have a federal judge who stands up for the rule of law."
