Too slow! FBI Shuts Down Hosting Service
Chope writes "If FBI agents showed up at your data center bearing a warrant, would you be able to provide them prompt access to customer data?
BZZZZT! I'm sorry, but you've taken too long to answer. We'll be confiscating all the hardware you use, er, used to use, to run your business. But we'll get it back to you 'real soon now.' Thank you for playing. CarrierHotels.com is carrying the story of a FBI raid on a web hosting company. When the hosting company didn't and/or couldn't provide the information the FBI was looking from its several terabytes of data within "several hours", the FBI decided it was more "efficient" to seize all the web servers and customer data as part of the FBI's investigation of a hacking incident."
someone was hosting a Dancing Bush site.

I read the book from Micheal Moore, "Stupid White Guys". If you remove the sensationalism he does make a very valid point. His point is that politics is basically screwed up. Clinton in his years talked well, but he was Bush in fancier clothes.
I understand why Nader wants to run. Frankly if I was an American I would vote for him. However, the political mess is not exclusive to the US. In Germany or Canada it is the same mess. Germany talks about reforms, HA!
The more and more I think about this, is that if the politicians are not careful, extremism is going to be the smallest of their problems.

"No," said Samuel, "but you can make very fast pig"
I'm mexican, you insensitive clod.
I hate to break it to you, but I've got brown skin just like yours. But I'm a Texan. I was born here and God willing I'll die here. You should study more about the Tejano contribution to Texas history and the Alamo before getting all offended. There were men born in Mexico who gave their lives for Texasd during the revolution, including at the Alamo.
Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas...
You'll work harder with a gun in your back for a bowl of rice a day.
Clinton administration under that bastion of civil liberties (nevermind Waco, Ruby Ridge, or Elian Gonzalez)
I hate to get offtopic here, but it really annoys me when democrat bashers don't even know what they're talking about. I bet you listen to Rush Limbaugh or Michael Savage religiously.
Hint, Ruby Ridge happened in '92.
Firstly, that's not how you spell "uneduated". Secondly, each non-fluid natural language has one very important attribute in common with the others, namely being dead.
What the hell is this crap about toeing party lines? I never have understood it. It's utter bullshit from no matter what angle you look at it. Voters who vote for a candidate just because they are Democrats are fools. They aren't voting on the issues or for the man/woman. They're voting with a word. A single fscking meaningless, pointless, worthless word. Elected official who toe party lines and vote against a bill or resolution simply because it was introduced by the other defunct party is a damned dishonest fool. He/she isn't there voting for the issues that his constituents elected him/her for. They are voting to maintain their party's power and to keep their own job. That's as dishonest as it gets.
What the hell is the point of having political parties? Why can't our elected officials just vote on the issues? Why the hell do they have to play party games? Elected Offical A runs for office by taking a particular stance on Hot Issue Z. His constituents elect him to office because of his stance on Z (and other stances of course). A bill is introduced regarding issue Z. His party Pink doesn't actually like Z and wants to instead vote for Y. Who is Elected Official A loyal to? The people that elected him to office and that he's representing? Or the club Pink that he claims to be a member of? I never will understand the point of political parties.
