Obama decides truth is too dangerous for us to know.
News rolled out from the White House that the Obama administration was making an about face, and deciding to fight the court order to release the torture photos. It's an extraordinary story, and people are right to be outraged.
Ken Gostzola, a student at Columbia College, pulled together the tortured logic of the Obama argument in Obama Employs Bush Administration Tactic to Halt Release of Detainee Photos.

Brilliant Undercover Agents Infiltrate Community Organization Ring!
In January the Department of Homeland Security issued a memo which named Ruckus an "anarchist extremist" group likely to be a cyber threat. The DHS released a report early this year titled, "Leftwing Extremists Likely to Increase Use of Cyber Attacks over the Coming Decade". In it, The Ruckus Society is targeted as an "anarchist extremist" group by DHS Field Agents.
The goal of the Ruckus Society is "Sustainability and self-determination for all communities".
OOOh the horror!

If you think special-interest influence warps our public policy, last week we saw an outrage that vindicates that belief entirely.
Sen. Dick Durbin offered a bill that would allow families at risk of losing their homes -- but with an ability to pay their mortgage if their monthly rates were lower and extended over more years -- to legally get that option.
The very banks that taxpayers kept alive with bailouts had the audacity to spend millions lobbying Congress to oppose this bill that would save homes. They also showered politicians with campaign contributions.
The bill was defeated. Senator Durbin declared that banks "frankly own the place." Will you continue to support politicians who support this corrupt system? Or will you demand that any politician you donate to support reform?
