Somehow I missed this news yesterday - that the Madrid bomb charges against Brandon Mayfield, an Oregon lawyer were dismissed.

I am stunned that the FBI would have committed such a colossal error. My God, you would have thought they would have been extra careful on this one. But they jumped headlong into it.

What we appear to have here is a confluence of extreme incompetency, massive overeagerness, and another indicator of what has happened to civil liberties. Incidents like this should give one serious pause.

My half brother Leland, who an independent tv satellite feed technician, took this picture. It is a gem. And the title of this post was suggested by one of Leland's colleagues.
