Cheney Urges Supermarkets To Turn Over Members’ Club Card Records To NSA
Vice President Dick Cheney has put out a memo asking all major American supermarket chains to open up their membership “club card” databases to the NSA, a Capitol Hill insider reported on Thursday. “By analyzing purchases made by customers of these retailers, we hope to identify patterns consistent with terrorist activity,” said Cheney. “After exhaustive interviews conducted at Guantanamo Bay over the last three years, we think we now have a pretty good idea of what these guys like to eat.”
