He's Voting Yes

"The FBI either "missed a lot of things" in its investigation of one of the Boston bombing suspects, or federal laws did not allow the FBI to "follow up in a sound, solid way," Sen. Lindsey Graham said Sunday." - Exerpt from an article on CNN.com

Did anyone catch that? It sounds like he was telling us that he, a government cog, thinks that the FBI might be under oppressive laws. He seems to think these laws could potentially be the cause of the bombs. Well Lindsey, so far in human history, there have been people who purposely avoid the consequences of breaking the law. Your law farm is producing nothing but paperwork and none of you have enough paper to catch everything before it happens; though you have a suspiciously good record of showing up before-hand. Why don't you come out again and be honest with us. I'll even tell you what to say: "I am voting 'yes' on CISPA." That's it.  You have 24 hours to think about it, then I'm going to have another episode bad enough to make me look at CNN and check up on you. Don't worry about your privacy; I don't want to know.

*The article mentioned above was found while conducting an experiment concerning mainstream media's coverage of the Anonymous ordered internet blackout. Lindsey and his law boner were the first result of my search query entitled, "Anonymous".

Intervention

I had a neighbor once, who over time became a friend. This is what I learned of him and from him over the course of five years. He went to the most elite private schools in the city, and attended The University of Alabama. He was the heir apparent to his father's insurance business, and like his parents, belonged to high society. He was married to a judge's daughter, and they had two daughters together. His life was what most would consider great. He had everything a man  could ever wish into being. His only problem was a lingering taste for alcohol that was a large part of college life, and also the life of society. Like most, a minor drinking problem was not hard to hide; but only until it grew into an unmanageable force. By the time he knew that his drinking had become a problem, his wife had already taken her heart back and given it to another. It was a classic case of being physically present but emotionally absent. He was none the wiser until his wife presented him with

Representation 101

On April 19, 2013 I wrote my U.S. Representative, Jo Bonner (R) a letter containing questions about CISPA (H.R. 624). I generally expect to recieve a form letter in return for my thoughts, but this time I got something a little better. I read over the bill after it had flown through the House, and while it was still on a few American minds. My questions were based on the following: Page 10 - line 5-24 "Federal Government in accordance with subsection (b)- (A) for cyber security purposes; (B) for the investigation and prosecution of cyber security crimes (C) for the protection of individuals from the danger of death or serious bodily harm and the investigation and prosecution of crimes involving such danger of death or serious bodily harm; (D) for the protection of minors from child pornography, any risk of sexual exploitation, and serious threats to the physical safety of minors, including kidnapping and trafficking and the investigation and prosecution of crimes involving c

U.S. vs. Iran: What are we missing?

There is constant chatter and media alarm in the US concerning Iran. As usual, we are fed the information that is not only one-sided, but is mostly a smoke bomb hiding many of the fouls that we have commited against a country that is not very different from some of our "allies" in the region. Actually, the media has made a conscious decision to ignore the facts, and keep them distorted for propaganda reasons. Iran and the US have an ugly history and today, the history has turned to a selective dismantling of a potentially great nation. Iran, and the region it was born in began around 3,200 BCE. Iran reigns as one of the oldest, major continuous civilizations. America on the other hand was established around 1776. That means that a culture, effectively five thousand years older than ours has an edge, and is certainly more well defined. Even our European counterparts can't compete with that. Iranian culture, though battered and abused, remains intact, and that is much mor
