Free kibbles

FREEDOM OF SPEECH:

UK police shut down music blog.

WAR ON DRUGS:

Retired cop tells the truth about why marijuana is illegal: corporate lobbyists.

POLICE STATE:

Because TSA agents are targeting pretty women, new legislation will create more TSA agents, these to listen to complaints.

POLITICS:

Vote counting shenanigans in Maine too.

Santorum residency and school tuition fraud. I haven't seen that in the news. Santorum also ran a charity mainly to pay off his political supporters.
"Before it folded in 2007, the foundation raised $2.58 million, with 39 percent of that donated directly to groups helping the needy. By industry standards, such philanthropic groups should be donating nearly twice that, from 75 to 85 percent of their funds.
“That’s exceptionally poor,” Ken Berger, president of Charity Navigator, a national organization that rates charitable groups, said of the group’s giving. “We would tell donors to run with fear from this organization.”"
Santorum's support will likely collapse when people learn about him.

Have you ever wondered at the scale of corruption in US elections?
"More than 24 million voter-registration records in the United States— about one in eight — are inaccurate, out-of-date or duplicates. Nearly 2.8 million people are registered in two or more states, and perhaps 1.8 million registered voters are dead. "
What else would you expect of a system run by the most corrupt people in the country for their benefit? But naturally, since government has failed so terribly, the solution is always more government.
""We have a ramshackle registration system in the U.S. It's a mess. It's expensive. There isn't central control over the process," said Lawrence Norden of the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University."
Yeah. Central control is what we need.
