White House Wins Ruling On E-mail Records

An anonymous reader writes "The White House Office of Administration is not required to turn over records about a trove of possibly missing e-mails, a federal judge ruled Monday. The ruling by U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly found the agency does not have 'substantial independent authority,' so it is not subject to the Freedom of Information Act."

    I've said it before and I'll say it again.
    The People have lost. Not enough people care about what happens as long as they have American Idol and Survivor, and credit cards.
    Those who do care are less than 1 percent, and are also branded as nutjobs.

    We have already lost, and can change nothing. Voting is a sham; the people we elect will do what they want anyways at the cost of screwing over the little people, and if we don't vote the way they like, they'll just mess with the votes of electronic voting.

    And don't even think about an armed revolution; the army is much more powerful and much more well armed than 50% of the US combined and wouldn't bat an eye at "putting down" such a thing.

    The reason we whine is because we're left with no other choices. It's the result of our loss.
