...airborne assault by U.S. troops expected overnight in a drive to recapture the town. Musa Qala was captured by the Taliban in February of this year, without a shot being fired - they simply rolled into town and planted their flag after British forces withdrew, having brokered an agreement with local tribal elders to keep the peace. And the radical movement fighting to expel foreign forces from Afghanistan and reimpose its harsh brand of Islamic rule has held the town ever since...
...Democrats in the House and Senate would require individualized warrants to wiretap calls made by foreign targets. Instead, the bills require such warrants only when the government targets Americans, something we should all agree is necessary. Klein was also flat-out wrong when he suggested that there is bipartisan agreement that the government should destroy any records on nontargeted Americans that it obtains using this broad new authority.

I too have blindly signed up with numerous social networks, resulting in an inbox blizzard of far-out birthday reminders and cyperbased karate kicks from friends of my friends. It's time to wake up and realize that you can't make real friends online. One can argue that services like Zyb and Twitter let you do just that, since most of our real friends and family are stored on our mobile phones...
