Why Are The Feds Collecting GPS Coordinates of Every House In America?

This story was first broken by Eric Dondero over at the Libertarian Republican blog.

Now there is video proof that, yes indeed, the Census Bureau is getting the GPS coordinates of every American home.



What could this information possibly be needed for? The purpose of the Census Bureau is to tally the number of people living in a congressional district for redistricting purposes. This practice of GPS marking homes is a gross violation of privacy in the very least. At the very most it is something that could be used to easily categorize and track any possible "type" of American as the Government sees fit. GPS coordinates can also be used for military purposes but that is something too horrible to even think about.

Arlen Specter Officially Switching to Democrat Party. Peace Out Specter! Don't Let The Door Hit You

Finally! Considering that he was a Republican only on paper for the last 15 years at least, this surprises no one. In fact, many in the Republican party are glad to see him go. Real Republicans are looking to purge the party of official leaders who are nothing more than big spending, money sucking quasi Republicans. Thank you Mr. Specter for making our job a bit easier!

There is already speculation that Specter made the switch so that he would actually stand a chance of getting re-elected as Pennsylvania senator in 2010. Specter's performance in very preliminary polls for the GOP primary were consistantly down against Libertarian Republican Pat Toomey, for CEO of The Club For Growth. According to The Washington Post, Pennsylvania has only one Democrat officially in the running for the 2010 senate opening so far. That would be Joe Torsella, former head of The National Constitution Center.

Polls closed Monday April 27 indicated that Toomey was leading Specter in the primary by 21 points

Libertarian Leaning Republican Pat Toomey Running for PA Governor in 2010?

There are strong rumblings in the state of Pennsylvania that Libertarian Republican Pat Toomey, president of the anti-tax group Club For Growth, is accessing his viability as a candidate for the 2010 governors race in PA.

According to Keystone Politics, "He has also put calls out statewide to supporters this week with the aim of raising money to do some preliminary polling."

I also was pleasantly surprised this morning when I checked my facebook account and saw a invite to support Toomey in his run for Governor.

This is news all Pennsylvania Republicans can be excited about. Toomey is a candidate that supports individual rights and personal responsibility, a much deserved break from the big nanny state government policies of "Fast Eddie" Rendell.
