Now I don't really have a problem with the current immigration legislation making its way through the halls in our nation's capital, but I just love this quote:

Today ...
762 more soldiers have died fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq than died on Tuesday September 11th, 2001. At the current casualty rate, that figure should cross 1,000 somewhere very near September 11th 2007.
Conservative estimates indicate more than 16 Iraqi civilians have perished for every Coalition death.

The Spy Act (H.R. 964)
An Excellent summary of the situation:
"Let's sum up. If the Spy Act become law, hardware, software, and network vendors will be granted carte blanche to use spyware themselves to police their customers' use of their products and services. Incredibly broad exceptions will probably allow even the worst of the adware outfits to operate with legal cover. State attempts to deal with the spyware problem will be pre-empted and enforcement left up almost entirely to the FTC. Gee, what's not to like in that deal?"
