1/18    Looks like some senators still have a little backbone:
        http://news.com.com/2100-1023-980889.html
        \_ this is why everyone, regardless of party affiliation should
           vote in the democratic primary so they acan vote against
           Liebermann.
           \_ Lieberman isn't even mentioned in the article that I could see.
              WTF are you talking about?
              \_ Anti-Semitic troll attempt.
        \_ The original logo for the Information Awareness Office is scary.
           \_ "Concealed in his fortress, the Eye of Mordor sees all."
        \_ Does the Information Awareness Office remind anyone else of the
           "Information Retrieval" office in the movie "Brazil"?
           \_ No.
        \_ Does the Department of Homeland Security remind anyone
           else of the Ministry of Love?

        \_ I would doubt that they are ever destroyed. What would you
           do about it in any case? Try not to worry too much about
           things you have no control over.

11/2    California Uber Alles is such a great song
        \_ Yes, and it was written about Jerry Brown. I was thinking this
           as I cast my vote for Meg Whitman. I am independent, but I
           typically vote Democrat (e.g., I voted for Boxer). However, I

The bill will also provide TIA critics with a focal point for activism. If fully implemented, TIA would link databases from sources such as credit card companies, medical insurers and motor vehicle departments for police convenience in hopes of snaring terrorists. It's funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ( 29 DARPA). Over the last two months, scrutiny of TIA has been growing, with newspaper editorials claiming that one of the project's leaders, Adm. John Poindexter, is unfit for the job because of his participation in the Iran-Contra scandal in the 1980s. As a protest gesture, activists and critics of TIA have posted Poindexter's personal information online, which may lie behind the 30 removal of information from the TIA Web site on at least three occasions. On Tuesday, a coalition of civil liberties groups sent a 31 letter to Congress asking that hearings be convened to investigate TIA. In addition, (we) will research and develop technologies to protect the system from internal abuses and external threats. One person with knowledge of the situation said Republican senator Chuck 34 Grassley of Iowa has been approached as a cosponsor of the TIA moratorium. The endorsement of a Republican would lend the moratorium measure additional heft. It says that those agencies may collect information on Americans "only in accordance" with specific procedures. A DARPA representative could not immediately be reached for comment.
