s “From this room to that room” is about the kindest thing that can be said about Obama’s proposed spying safeguards. The “Department of Public Trust” was a nice touch by Ted Rall. Lots of excellent articles around the Internet debunking Obama’s Friday speech on NSA reform – almost too many to count, actually. I […]

How Many NSA Lies Will Be Necessary to Restore Trust in Govt.?
How many more lies about surveillance will Obama need to tell to restore trust in government? I was disappointed in Obama’s speech because I thought he might waive sovereign immunity & let Americans sue the government for NSA crimes. On the bright side, I don’t need to spend the afternoon looking for a lawyer […]
Radio Host Bob Grant, R.I.P.

Fair Trade Fraud Epigrams & IHS Graphic
This sentence looks better in this IHS graphic than it did when I wrote it on a greenish flickering computer screen some 20 years ago. Here is the link to the web page for Fair Trade Fraud, which first came out in 1991. And here are some other epigrams from that book: “Fair trade” is […]
“James Bovard, Your a BAD editor”
Here’s my favorite comment so far on the Washington Times’ “Obama’s Obesity Epidemic” op-ed. Dan wrote: “James Bovard is an idiot, blame the president for diabetes. If you don’t like a politicians, do some real research. In short wheat, processed foods, the United States Department of Agriculture are the leading cause in growing diabetes. Not the […]
