I wish I knew about this before..

Wikileaks, a site where whistleblowers can post documents, was shut down by a California judge. Now we join China and Thailand as the only three countries who ban this site. This is another attempt to protect the privacy of the government, by the people.. for the people?. Forget the conscience. Bush even threatens a veto of the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act (sort of). It would protect National Security workers, Contractors, and Scientists, three recently politicized jobs, if they leak illegal information. Bush won't have to do that, of course, because a hold has been put on this bill since June..
