They were caught listening in on our phone calls without a warrant and they said that it was only between Americans and foreign terrorists. But it turns out they are tracing all phone calls. Now we find out that they are looking into bank accounts. Will we soon find out that they are tracking all our spending without a warrant? Are they lying about this too? When the government breaks the law then there is no law.

I was in the courtroom today in San Francisco watching the Bush Administration argue in front of the court that Bush was above the law. They stated that the Electronic Frontier Foundation can not sue AT&T for tapping our phones without a warrant. I sat there in amazement as they actually told the judge that if Congress passed a law prohibiting what they are doing that Bush would refuse to obey it and it would create a constitutional crisis. It was like I was a witness to the death of freedom.
Yep - I was actually there and they really did say that.

North Korea is about to launch a missile test to see if it can create a weapon that can hit California. For years the Republicans and the military have been claiming that we have a missile defense system that can keep us safe. So - lets see if Korea launches its test missile if America can shoot it down. If we don't shoot it down I think it's an admission that we can't.
A few days ago I wrote about Wells Fargo charging me a $29 fee for a no fee credit card. I called them about it and they said they would remove the fre. They said it was for a "Rewards Program" that I didn't sign up for. So a few days go by and the $29 is still there. I call again. The persom appologized and said that it would be taken off this time. So - I wait over the weekend and today it's still there. So I call a third time and they say that they cancelled the rewards program, but didn't remove the charge from my bill. They claim that this time they are going to get it right.
I haven't used this card but they already made three mistakes and all in their favor. That's what I call - fraud.

Looks like they finally reversed the charge - twice. Now my balance is -$29.!
