It's funny how fear can be used to make us compromise our own values


Oh, and the BBQ thing, it's been real warm this winter, 50's and rain, weird. Put the smoker away back late November, but this weather got me thinking.....

I'm more disappointed the information about the wire-taps were leaked, besides, do you think Bush is the only President to do it? That NSA 'phone-surfing' has been going on for a VERY long time.

Let it continue, I have nothing to hide anyway. Heck, maybe they can review and give me pointers after my phone sex episodes.
