That proposal surfaced Wednesday in a private meeting during which U.S. Department of Justice officials, including Assistant Attorney General Rachel Brand, tried to convince industry representatives such as AOL and Comcast that data retention would be valuable in investigating terrorism, child pornography and other crimes.

Maybe they can help me figure out how to sort all of the photos I upload as well and help me decide how to crop them for best appearance; at least then the money wouldn't be wasted!

This has the potential of replacing the government we now have!

I don't care if they go after child porn or terrorism; but it never stops at what they ask for when they ask.

I once read a bomb-making book that a soldier had left behind in my grandparents rental property (gave it to the library and the librarian threw it out); what I remember, after 30 years, would make me really dangerous, to myself!  

My two grandfathers, both pretty arch conservatives, taught me to pay close attention to whoever is in the "bully pulpit" and the bad decisions that are made in the "heat of action!"


It would be nice if the black helicopters and the men in black would let me sleep at night!
