Ad Campaign for Freedom The ad council has put together some great advertisements for freedom. I gather they are being shown on TV, but they can also be viewed on the net. Especially recommended are the Library and the Arrest ad. At a time when our civil rights are under assault, it is great to see these ads. I wonder if the Bush administration's "Americans need to watch what they say" Ari Fleischer and "dissent aids terrorism" Ashcroft will see themselves targeted by the ads and will try to suppress them.  I love the tag line: "Freedom. Appreciate it. Cherish it. Protect it." Seen all over the net, but I believe I first spotted in on Declan McCullagh's Politech mailing list.

The passion for secrecy An interesting article on how hard it is to get information on anything from the Bush administration. "For example, the Bush administration has treated some environmental issues with the same level of circumspection previous administrations have reserved for national security." Tip o the hat to Tapped. Permalink  1:49:05 AM   Google It!  What do you think?  [] comments.
