  1. So many of you are so far off course. on Americans Not Bothered by NSA Spying · · Score: 1

    Lets look at a few things: Do you use a credit card? Do you use a discount card? Do you go on the internet? Ever get unsolicited mail? Magazines subscriptions? We are tracked in so many ways that this one is pretty unobtrusive and meaningless. On the other hand, what are the odds the NSA are going want to look into your boring lives? We really don't have that kind of time. I would much rather have them listen to my phones calls (which isn't what we are doing) then cram those damn pre-approved credit card offers in my mail box every day. Not to mention the endless coupon pamphlets. Now that's a crime.

  2. Govt work anyone? on How IBM Out-foxed Intel With The Xbox 360 · · Score: 3, Funny

    "He worked on such dogs as Apple Computer's defunct video card business, 3DO's failed game consoles, a chip startup that screwed up a deal with Nintendo, the never successful WebTV and Microsoft's canceled Ultimate TV satellite TV recorder." Generally a record like this indicates an aptitude in government.

  5. Re:For as long as Governments .. on CIA Secretly Reclassifying Documents · · Score: 1

    Here is an example of how the press is missing the boat when it comes to doing their job. Instead of hearing about legal/not-legal wire tapping, the sale of US ports to Arabs, and Iran making nukes. We hear about how Cheney accidently shot someone in a hunting accident 24/7 for a week.

    What about the Clintons? Cmon, lets be fair here. They were/are pretty messed up.
