Since I'm on a "censorship post" kick today:
Bush couldn't have picked a better opponent to go up against. Google is going to get a kick ass PR benefit out of the fight and has the deepest pockets to fight it successfully and I'm betting will win. Not only is the request outrageous on its face but its also proprietary information and will never be pried loose since they are not a party to the originating challenge to the law that is being fought. I've said it before: How the American people are not rioting in the streets over the outrageous attacks on privacy by the Bush admin. is completely beyond me.
I look around and wonder "what are you people thinking about?" Nobody seems to even remember that we're in a second war in Afghanistan, oh yeah that's right I mean a third war on drugs, oh yeah also a fourth war on terrorism worldwide, oh yeah and gearing up on Iran and half of South America too... ooops forgot about Sryia
For everybody that wants to know:
