Boing Boing: Congressman on Boarding Pass Generator guy: Uh... oops?
Last Friday, Rep. Edward Markey (D-MA) called for the arrest of Christopher Soghoian, and the takedown of his "Boarding Pass Generator" website which illustrated an airline security hole documented on the web for several years. Hours after the congressman's statement, Soghoian says FBI agents visited his home, then returned a second time after he'd left -- in the middle of the night -- with a search warrant signed at 2AM, and seized Soghoian's computer(s) and other belongings.Now, several days too late, Markey issues another pronouncement which backtracks on his earlier statement. It's 250 words, but they boil down to one: "oops."

Think Progress » GLOBAL WARMING REPORT: Right-Wing Fiction vs. Economic Reality
Julie MacDonald, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Fish and Wildlife and Parks, has consistently "rejected staff scientists' recommendations to protect imperiled animals and plants under the Endangered Species Act." A civil engineer with no training in biology, she has overruled and disparaged the findings of her staff, instead relying on the recommendations of political and industry groups.
Especially heinous I think is the recent legislation McCain helped to broker that suspended habeus corpus for "enemy combatants", and allows torture, among other dreadful things. I used to like McCain, but now he's pimped himself out for too many political purposes I think.
Media Matters - Despite McCain's many hedges, Borger asserted that "[n]o one would accuse McCain of equivocating on anything"
In her latest column, posted online on October 29 and that will appear in the November 6 edition of U.S. News & World Report, U.S. News contributing editor and CBS News national political correspondent Gloria Borger asserted that "[n]o one would accuse [Sen. John] McCain [R-AZ] of equivocating on anything." Writing about the prospect of Sen. Barack Obama's (D-IL) running for president in 2008, Borger contrasted him with McCain, asserting that Obama's "penchant for wishy-washy is well documented." Yet as Media Matters for America has repeatedly noted, despite an abundance of well-documented backtracks, flip-flops, and inconsistencies, the media continue to describe McCain with words such as "honest" and "authentic" and generally regard him as an unwavering purveyor of "straight talk."
Oh brother. "allegedly 3.2-million" years old.
