It just shows how much President Obama loves us and wants to protect us...

 

[TopDog]

For the love of government, at the cost of freedom.

A privilege is only valid if the courts agree it exists, and applies to a particular case.

If a person were seeking information that the government had mined, that's one thing. But to call into question the program itself would not, I would argue, invoke the privilege.

The government's statement begs the question whether the suits actually trigger any such privilege...

Next question, should such a privilege be recognized, or abrogated.

Yes, this is a very clever way for the government to deal with this issue. Let's see what the NY Times thinks about this Nixonian turn of events...

More snow to cover up Ben- Gazzi, Fast & Furiuos and so many others I've forgotten.

The claim comes amid a billowing furore...

I like that phrase...

We'll see if this can stick to president teflon.

Well, the wrong kind of Republican, an impure one. You know those purity tests.

Yes, I'm at the gun show. The .22 is $80 for 500.

I stumbled into a bunch of Blue Dot. Bullets, powder, and primers. I see a pattern in my future.

That's encouraging. I'll drop by but not expect anything.

Doesn't that mean we can declare that he was not actually a Republican and we can not be challenged on it.

DONE!

Nixon was not a Republican. He really never was one, with all that price fixing, and anti free market doings.

My $12 550 round packs remain the best investment I've ever made.

I think you guys may be onto something. I wonder if this tactic has been tried before?
