Badtux the Snarky Penguin

In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.

Religious fundamentalists are motivated by the sneaking suspicion that someone, somewhere, is having fun -- and that this must be stopped.

If your library records can't be read by FBI, we all die

At least, that appears to be what Preznit Shrub's message to America was today. Nevermind that the Patriot Act's more evil provisions have never been used to catch any terrorists (Dubya's Justice Department is 0 for 1000 when it comes to terror convictions -- they're almost as competent as the Preznit himself). If Congress doesn't vote to renew those provisions, we will all be slaughtered in our bead by hoards of Islamofascists, says Dear Leader!

So remember, write your congressman, and tell him that you want the FBI to be able to look at his library checkout records at any time. After all, what if some Congressman checks out "Terrorism Daily"? Why, he might go berserk and kills us all!

Obligatory wingnuttery: Wingnuts say that the Patriot Act's library provisions aren't evil because "they've never been used". Well, if they've never been used, why do we need them?

"Keep fighting for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce." -- Molly Ivins, 1944-2007 "The penalty good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men."

-- Plato
