Poison Pillz

Must take a break from President Lam-o-crat. Cannot find desire to sort through the 30 qued posts regarding the tax cave.

So....

RIP Elizabeth Edwards. I saw her and John once on a North Carolina beach shaking hands and politicking before John was elected N.C. Senator. I voted for John in that election.

RIP Elizabeth. You were a damn good one.

Assange is a mixture of Bond and various Bond villains. Lovin' this guy and his work

We can handle the truth. Those trying to prevent us from learning the truth will not be able to handle us when we know the truth.

Besides, our government is nothing but a self-fulfilling perpetual hypocrisy machine.

Freedom for me, but not for thee:

Flashback: Sec. Clinton hailed Internet freedom as tool to ‘spread truth and expose injustice’ | Raw Story:
"US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton gave a public speech in January 2010 championing Internet freedom as a vital tool to open governments and promote transparency, while criticizing 'dictatorships' who seek to target those who use technology to expose their transgressions.

'In many respects, information has never been so free,' Clinton said at the Washington, D.C. Newseum. 'There are more ways to spread more ideas to more people than at any moment in history. Even in authoritarian countries, information networks are helping people discover new facts and making governments more accountable.'

'This challenge may be new, but our responsibility to help ensure the free exchange of ideas goes back to the birth of our republic,' she added, invoking the First Amendment to the US Constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech."

Dude is wicked smart, too. Obama should take some negotiation lessons from Assange.

Been done, but not to this extreme:

In the Name of Art, Wafaa Balil is a Walking Tripod - PCWorld:
"Iraqi-American Bilal, an assistant professor at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, has implanted a titanium plate into the back of his skull for the sake of his art. The plate allows Bilal to attach and remove a camera to the back of his head magnetically, for his project which is called 'The 3rd I.'"
