  7. On a Glenn Beck show last week, he revealed that the financial supporters of Wikileaks are some of the same who financially supported Odumbo.

    Odumbo hasn't aggressively come out against Assange... At a minimum, we should all be at least wondering why....

  8. I'm afraid I might know why:

    Step 1) Allow some relatively minor 'secret' government documents to be leaked on the net. The total volume of materials deliberately allowed to be leaked is massive, but the true impact of their contents is minimal.

    Step 2) Aggressively seize control of the net in the name of 'security', crushing the people's one last bastion of freedom.
