The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Rep Tsongas on ACORN Vote

Earlier today I posted on the US House vote on defunding Acorn and noted that our Representative, Congresswoman Niki Tsongas voted against defunding.  I wrote to one of her Staffer's who provided this input, and did so promptly.
Good to hear from you.  Congresswoman Tsongas believes that the behavior displayed by ACORN employees was nothing short of despicable, and feels strongly that ACORN should no longer be permitted to receive federal funding in light of these developments.

While Congresswoman Tsongas feels that it is appropriate that ACORN will likely no longer receive federal funds, she was disappointed that the bill that was considered in the House was so broad that it could apply to organizations that had committed no wrongdoing and for that reason she felt compelled to vote against it.
While I still agree with the House Majority, I see Congresswoman Tsongas' thinking and it is a point of view to be considered and respected.

Thanks to John Noble.
