Orwell would be proud of that one. Jesus H. What next, “war to keep the peace”?
With all this double-speak, my head gets dizzy.

I have a similar lack of time, but I’ve solved it by stopping writing on my OWN blog for the most part. :-)

It’s a lot easier to find the time to scan others’ blogs and just write a quick comment when the mood strikes than to come up with regular and as-fully-as-possible informed posts on my own.

Liam.

P.S. Not really as an ad, but because you might be interested: if you search for the title “Cue Ball City” on Amazon or bn.com you can see my ugly mug. I put out a book of all of the humor essays I’d written up through last November. Just FYI.

And glad to know you still drop in from time to time. I’ve stopped commenting too much on this blog, just kind of posting and leaving comments open for others to toss in. Not that I don’t enjoy a good exchange, just don’t have the time that I used to. Thanks, as always, for sharing your thoughts.

LAW- Nice to see you over here. I’ve missed your input at BIO.
I’ll check out that site-thanks for the tip. Hope to keep hearing from you, even if I don’t talk back as much here.

Ken, I wanted to alert you to a blogger out of Walter Reed. He’s been told NOT to blog.. but hey, he did his part to protect the Constitution, so he should be protected by it, right? NO, he was not ORDERED (he wouldn’t disobey a direct order) he was strongly advised… well tough. Here’s his site

I first heard about the “Permanent interim” situation several months back.

The good news is that apparently the Congress has decided to repeal that bit of the Patriot Act and the White House has reluctantly agreed.

Someone tried to slip in the ability to put their hand in the cookie jar into the Patriot Act, hoping no one would notice, and since they did, have decided to be “gracious” about it because they can no longer do it on the sly.

(Of course, how they could have been so stupid as to think no one would notice is beyond me, but still…)

Now, there’s always the possibility that this “deal” will go sour, or will become like the “solution” to the illegal wire-tapping program (“Your objections are all moot, now, because we’ve had one of the FISA judges review it and issue a blanket warrant” my ass, warrants aren’t supposed to be blanket, the whole point is that someone is supposed to be reviewing them on a case-by-case basis!)

But the spotlight of publicity seems to be making this particular bit of Presidential odiousness go away.

Liam.
