Hmmmm....your popularity as the President Of Americastan is waning and people are questioning your competency and the war in Iraq.

What can you do?

I know....let's remind them all about September 11th and have another cry fest.

Just about everyone has. Except the government.

I agree with Fender. Even the Bush-loving sheeple I know won't use 9/11 as any kind of reason for anything - they never mention it at all.

The only people I have heard talk about 9/11 in (at least) the last 8 months are Bush, Cheney, et al.

In all honesty, I believe everyone in the country would let 9/11 fade peacefully into memory if it weren't for our fear-mongering politicians - even red state sheeple who support the administration blindly. It's important to remember that nearly all the people who still support Bush at this point, are doing it out of a feeling of loyalty, and not out of any kind of support for his policies. It's been that way for a while now.

That's a shame. I live in TN, which is right up there on the red state rungs, and it's not that bad here.

It's still bad though -- I see at least 3 or 4 Bush stickers on cars every morning on my 10 minute drive to work. These are the people who are like sports fans when it comes to politics. Team loyalty above all else. It's familiar to me, my grandmother is the same way.

I'm pretty sure Bush no longer cares about popularity. That and he gets a hard on reading 1984.

So this process of gathering information from Google, Symantec, McAfee, Yahoo, etc... It's all just an attempt by politicians to enact a law that originally had an injunction on it, on constitutional grounds?

The law they're trying to enact makes it "illegal to provide children with online content deemed harmful to them."

Who would be prosecuted under this law? ISPs? Websites? Parents? Security software companies?

Just the thought of this law being enacted the way it is written seems irresponsible.
