She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her.

Give Us This Day...

...Our Daily WTF?!?!?

In an extremely un-shocking display, the fed-dot-gov has once again challenged what and where their subordinates' (read: We The People) rights are. Read more.

The money quote from the article,
s'il vous plait:

In that case, the Obama administration has argued that Americans enjoy no "reasonable expectation of privacy" in their--or at least their cell phones'--whereabouts. U.S. Department of Justice lawyers say that "a customer's Fourth Amendment rights are not violated when the phone company reveals to the government its own records" that show where a mobile device placed and received calls.
