6/13    NSA NSA NSA!!!
        http://www.businessinsider.com/nsa-prism-keywords-for-domestic-spying-2013-6
        \_ I am shocked, *SHOCKED* that the NSA spies on foreign and US
           citizens and foreign governments. This Snowden guy must have
           been born yesterday to think he is revealing anything of import.
           \_ Most people seem to have been surprised by this.

8/26    Micro$oft is racist!!!
        http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_tec_microsoft_poland_picture
        Seriously, is it any different from replacing the black actor with a
        white actor and then re-taking a real photo to suit a foreign market?
        Would it cause the same outcry if, say, M$ Photoshop'ed ... I mean
        photo-edited ... the Asian man and the white woman with two blacks for

5/26    Is it correct to call someone the daughter of Puerto Rican
        "immigrants"? Seems wrong to me. Puerto Ricans get US Passports.
        \_ Yes it is correct.
           \_ Thanks! Obama immigrated from Hawaii, right?
              \_ Not the same.  Doubly not the same in the early 50s.  Go watch
                 yourself some West Side Story.

1/28    One of the criticisms of the Patriot Act was that it was rammed
        through without any time for legislators to properly review
        it.  Isn't that the same problem with this $800B bill?
        \_ Is this $800B bill hundreds upon hundreds of pages long? It's not
           coming off the heels of a crisis in national defense; rather, it's
           attempting to fix a spiraling economy. Plus it seems that the

The case of Sami Omar Al-Hussayen, charged with supporting terror groups by maintaining radical Islamic Web sites, is one of the first terrorism trials to emerge since the demolition of the infamous "wall" that kept intelligence information out of law enforcement's hands. This case and others built on evidence obtained under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act will test courts' ability to balance due process rights against national security interests.
