The official in charge of coordinating the US government’s cyber-security operations has quit, saying the expanding control of the National Security Agency over the nation’s computer security efforts poses “threats to our democratic processes.”
“Even from a security standpoint, it is unwise to hand over the security of all government networks to a single organization,” said Rod A. Beckstrom, the head of the Department of Homeland Security’s National Cyber Security Center when speaking to United Press International.
Finally, somebody in Obama government doesn't like what Obama is doing to the country.

Finally, somebody in Obama government doesn't like what Obama is doing to the country.
Um, you really need to start checking dates on things......he resigned back in March, 2009.
On March 5, 2009, less than a year after the position was created, he stated that he would resign as the Director of the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) on Friday, March 13, 2009. He stated that a lack of cooperation from the NSA and insufficient funding led to his resignation.
And he wasn't "Obama government" he was a Bush appointee from the get-go.

Cyber-Security Chieft post WAS created during Obama administration. You are obcessed with BUSH too much. Obama is in charge. 'Lack of cooperation and insufficient funding' were not the REAL reason which he RESIGNED according to this article. It's what it's.

What part of 2008 not being part of the Obama administration don't you understand? And why do you keep posting last year's news as if it were current?
Beckstrom joined the Bush administration's Department of Homeland Security in March of 2008, to create a new inter-agency group to coordinate information sharing about cyber attacks. From the start, concerns about how the new department would fit in with other parts of DHS. Beckstrom was not a cybersecurity expert, but was apparently chosen for his private sector background, and his management abilities.

I know who Rod Beckstrom is but the reason I posted this news was to show you that not everybody in the administration agreed with his boss's policy but you may know it.
Furthermore, it's nice to hear how this cyber-security affects our democracy process. Understood?

Well, he's getting better. At least he got the year right this time.

I'm not good at number. Now, you see why i have hard time keeping track the number of my Obama threads daily. It's done UNINTENTIONALLY. Please don't jump on me when you see my #5 Obama threads.
I appreciate the reminder from liberals here such as reflexblue.

First off, it's not "news" if it's 10 months old.
Second of all, his "boss" was not Obama, his "boss" was Bush and so no, I did not expect him to agree with Obama nor was I suprised when he quit less than 2 months after Obama took office. Were you?
