Interesting. Here's an L.A. Times article about an internal State Department document which essentially refutes the idea that all the Middle Eastern countries will become democracies like dominoes once Saddam is gone and Iraq is liberated.
Congress may be wising up to the Administration's love of intrusive data gathering about its citizens (that's you and me, folks), in this case the travelling public. It's demanding full oversight of a TSA plan to create a database of passenger profiles. In related news, the TIA is apparently much further along in the planning stages than was previously thought; it's awarded over two dozen grants to various companies and organizations.
I don't know how I feel about this: some intrepid/foolhardy soul is going to try to blog the war. It can be found here, and yes, he's soliciting donations.
