Two Essential Links for the Day

Remember at the debates how John Kerry said he didn't like the Patriot Act provision allowing CIA to enter your home, search, and leave without ever telling you they were there?

It turns out that he's only opposed to Republicans doing that. Via Ace.

Short version: when asked to vote on bascially an identical provision, John Kerry said "Aye." 1994, baby. Clinton-era. Old school.

And I found an interesting blog from Kuwait. All kinds of stuff to read there, but this one caught my eye as just too funny. It seems that Kuwaiti radio has been playing Green Day's new song "American Idiot," but editing out the word "American from the chorus.

Fascinating.
