Hooda Thunk?
When the information about NSA monitering of international communications leaked out, my first thought was not, as it was during similar discussions during the Clinton presidency, that I could set off alarms by discussing reefers with my model railroading friends. Instead, based on what I've learned working in the cellular field about the data attached to every call, I thought about how many places within walking distance of my home I could purchase a phone anonymously for cash. It turns out that I'm not the only one to think of doing this.
On a somewhat related note, in a post about the possibility of America being a fascist state, Kevin Drum, along with some of his commenters, once again demonstrates that it is possible to be a left-liberal foe of the current administration without being a moonbat.
