Freedom of information wins the first pinfall in the fight against privacy.

Ahhh...So you're a product of your environment...I understand now.

Yeah, some parts of California actually do make some sense.

AFAIK, campaign(pain) finance law makes all donations public knowledge I knew I couldn't say that with a straight face...but they are actually supposed to declare who and how much...

Remember the ex-GF, Stephanie? I typed in her last name and found out she gave $1,000 to W's campaign and her dad gave $2,000. Oddly enough, those names didn't show up in the first search even though they should have.

I also found out that the house for sale I posted on Cato's board is actually a couple houses up the street, not her house. The front looks just about the same, though.

So you posted a strangers house, and ratted out contributions by an ex and her father...Does the term stalking mean anything to you?

Notice I didn't say her last name was Sh... er, didn't tell you her last name?

BTW...Squiggy. Your site isn't big brother...this one is...

Brave new world, eh?

Why I don't trust republicans in the whitehouse...

Behind the projects
The project was the brainchild of retired Adm. John Poindexter, who was driven from the Reagan administration in 1986 over the Iran-Contra scandal. Some 15 years later, he was summoned back by the Bush administration to develop data-mining tools for the fight against terrorism.

Democrats are no better...They just sugar-coat it a little more, so you don't know that form you signed for the free handouts really cost you your soul...

 

[Squiggy]

I meant the oidea of them using Poindexter after claiming Iran-Contra was his own, private shadow government project...
