It seems that Liberty and Justice for All is not dead yet! Congress has quashed funding for a very troubling DARPA project. Info here.

Now, if they'd just revisit the Patriot Act ....

Good news indeed. I just hope it has been been pushed into a black budget, or whatever the term is the spooks use for funding the stuff they do not Congress to know about [img]tongue.gif[/img]

*this is Rokenn's stunned silence*

"Total information -- what?" said Al Demarco, a sanitation worker. "Sounds like some sort of a hippie thing -- be aware, be total, be the information."

Ollie Fouda, owner of a sidewalk newsstand, hazarded a guess that the Patriot Act was a new Broadway play.

"That's some new terrorist trick," said Ramzi Rahman, a Manhattan cab driver. "The bad guys act like patriots to get into this country, right?"

I'd like to make a point about your sig Rokenn if I may. The Supreme Court doesn't decide right from wrong. It decides on the constitutionality of laws.

I'd like to make a point that you have no sense of humor, it is a quote from the Onion [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Here is another fun quote from the What Do You Think section:

"All I ever hear is Bush, Bush, Bush. When are we getting a new president?"
