    Well, my guess is that is a private contractor the government contracts out with to watch these things. So...I don't really give the government much credit! They just write a check.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    Not true in this case. Contractors don't fly our surveillance satellites.

    Also, the government doesn't write the check. YOU write the check. The government owns NOTHING.

    What about digitalglobe right here in Longmont, they do defense and surveillance, and with their new satellite they have 30cm resolution.

    Not the kind of surveillance I had in mind... I was thinking more along the lines of the NRO.

    I remember the days when I would've went to a very dark jail cell for even mentioning "NRO" outside of a SCIF. Now everything we did is all over the History Channel and others.

    Yeah, that cat is out of the bag, but there are many more fun things that very few people get to know about, as you can imagine.

    The .gov writes the checks, we make the deposits so the damn things don't bounce. It's like having a really bitchy high maintenance girlfriend, with a serious shopping problem, that you can't get rid of. And, she has access to your credit cards and bank accounts.

    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
