“Being called a traitor by Dick Cheney is the highest honor you can give an American, and the more panicked talk we hear from people like him, Feinstein, and King, the better off we all are. If they had taught a class on how to be the kind of citizen Dick Cheney worries about, I would have finished high school.”

“Obama’s campaign promises and election gave me faith that he would lead us toward fixing the problems he outlined in his quest for votes. Many Americans felt similarly. Unfortunately, shortly after assuming power, he closed the door on investigating systemic violations of law, deepened and expanded several abusive programs, and refused to spend the political capital to end the kind of human rights violations like we see in Guantanamo, where men still sit without charge.”

“I didn’t interview Alexander but he certainly has to be comfortable with it since he’s done enormous amounts of it. Before 9/11 NSA never did much outsourcing. After 9/11 they went wild. They received money and they needed a place to spend it. Contractors had employees and access to employees who had clearances. I’m sure he’s comfortable with it because they’ve been outsourcing so much. I think the whole intelligence community needs to be shrunk in the first place.”

“In this study, seven people with severe epilepsy were hospitalized for a monitoring procedure that tries to identify where in the brain seizures originate. Physicians cut through the scalp, drilled into the skull and placed a thin sheet of electrodes directly on top of the brain. While they were watching for seizure signals, the researchers also conducted this study”
