This place would be the first to go.

It would't be a bunch of drunks they'd want to shut down. The obsession with controling information that has Bush attacking the New York Times is much more frustrated by the internet. First they try to discredit it, then they'll try to shut it down but not like China. They'll use different ways of pricing to limit access (by cost) to particualr sites. Only those who spend the most will have total access. Tha is what net neutrality is about.

Then, in the name of Homeland Security, they may round up certain bloggers and charge them with crimes for endagering irrational security.

Behind them? We are pretty much neck-and-neck. Thankfully, our hulking bureaucracy has proven ineffectual on this point so far. There has been resistance from within the ranks about setting obscenity prosecution as a priority. It's a sword of Damocles.
jaded prol
That and obscenity is a big business.

Well said Peeps!

I'd support Peeps for Prez except that she might not ever forgive me.

As long as I am her
right handjob man...

Oh, now that's sweet, GTO.
I don't think I'm cut out for it, though.
My blame-shifting skills are minimal
and the first thing I'd have to do is fire all of the empty-suited ass kissers,
which would leave me with no cabinet.

WASHINGTON DC -- Reports are in this morning that Secretary of the Treasury Thomas Toady has been released from duty. The president issued a statement to the press that, "Toady is a craven bootlicker and and a huge, pompous pantload." This is the third such statement she has issued in recent weeks...

Sounds like my kind of Prez!


TGO would make a good Sec of state.

Can I be Nat'l Security Adviser? Or head of the CIA? Either one.
A.B. Normal

CelticGent

Sign me up for Dept. of Homeland Security. Where else would you put the jackbooted skinhead.

I used to attend horse shows as a girl.
You could have me head up FEMA.

greeneyes
You got it.
Although I originally had you pinned for
Secretary of Defensiveness
and Secretary of States, respectively,
far be it from me to typecast.
At least I know Cros will be no yes man, no way, never,
and Abby can be counted on to revamp the boys' club with aplomb.

This is one sexy cabinet.

I hope neither of you is disappointed
when I announce the position for a Minister of Porn.
