Blogspot sucks

And that's why I'm here. Well, actually it's a long story and you're just going to have to live with not knowing.

Assuming, of course, that anyone reads this, which is a mighty big assumption indeed.

Eventually I'll copy the four entries I did in Blogspot over here, because one of them was actually kind of funny. Right now, though, I'm going to archive something I posted today in the oh-so-transient Yahoo message board area. It got nine recommendations, so it must be really good, right? If you want to read it in its original context, and maybe even read the original article, go here. Basically, it's just a news article about civil liberties organizations complaining that Prezident Bush has given himself the power to put American citizens in jail for life without a trial. Boo hoo. If they didn't want to live in a monarchy, they shouldn't have been born in America!


What's the problem?

Why are all those people whining? Isn't the President's word good enough for them? He says he needs the power to throw anyone he wants in jail for life without a trial or an attorney, and as Americans we must all support the troops, which means supporting the President.

Secret imprisonment for life on the say-so of one man is all part of the American way. If you have a problem with it, why don't you move to someplace like Bangladesh? http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=655&ncid=655&e=3&u=/oneworld/20030806/wl_oneworld/4591650471060166601



Oh, thanks to my buddy epimetheus - or is is charibdis? - for the login code.
