Just to shift gears, I heard yesterday in the Times that they did pass the department in the Senate, or they're expected to, or some such thing. Bush shat in the face of unions (not that I'm terribly fond of them myself) for hiring in this department, but the Dems got a token oversight board for union complaints.

So now that we're finally getting this department, what does everyone think? Expanded powers of law enforcement, with Ashcroft and his civil-rights-trampling cronies at the helm. I'm not being partisan at all, I'm wondering if this department will actually do some good, and whether it WILL (and yes I believe it will) have adverse affects on industries and types of businesses the current administration does not like.

How soon before the terrorist threat has subsided and suddenly child porn or obscenity is a threat to our 'homeland security' ?
