"It is one of the great paradoxes of our time that the very technologies that empower us can also be used to undermine us," he said.

Yes, the NSA has found ways to use all sorts of technologies against us. They weaken encryption standards to make eavesdropping easier for them but which also weakens systems that this executive order is designed to protect. How about signing a executive order to reign in the NSA instead of waiting for Congress to pass a law to force you to do it?

A president that takes selfies while Isis is beheadings Americans. Doesn't get my time to read any artical on why he's hear in my community. Causing traffic delays.

Lynn, Remember when Dubya read a book about a goat to kids while the US/NYC was under actual attack by air.
I remember that, as well as what the economy looked like at the end of Bush's terms and what it looks like now. My own 401K included.
Here's a great fact check for you: Report what the DOW and S&P were at at the end of Bush's time and what it has been since Obama took office. That's a good fact.
