Penn Jillette, the louder, larger half of Penn & Teller, continuing his decades long promotional gauntlet for the Bill of Rights – Security Edition.
Nice to show up in a piece by the Cato Institute.
The mention shows up around minute 14:00.
Thanks again, Penn!

From Downsize DC’s “Downsizer Dispatch”.
“The right to travel enables the free exercise of the other rights we most cherish. We should not have to check our constitutional freedoms at the curb simply because we decide to leave the house. Sadly, freedom of movement has been one of the most disparaged rights throughout human history, and our country is no exception. If we are ever to be truly free, then we must possess an absolute, uninhibited right to travel throughout America and the world free from interference by government.” – Judge Andrew Napolitano
The TSA is a worthless and pointless bit of theater sponsored by the U.S. Government. Government theater is the worst kind of theater.
Let’s get rid of it. Send a letter to your reps via Downsize DC.

I have friends who say “That effing movie was awesome!!!” thinking that they’re protecting someone from a “dirty” word. It’s insanity. One immediately thinks “he means fucking”. It’s baby talk.
The biggest sin committed when saying “effing” is destroying the value of the Electronic Frontier Foundation aka The EFF. Although saying, “EFF the TSA” does actually make sense, it doesn’t mean “Fuck the TSA”, it means “Visit the Electronic Frontier Foundation online and learn how rights are being destroyed by the TSA.”
Of course, they do other awesome things such as… BRANDING THEIR OWN VERSION OF THESE HERE SECURITY EDITION CARDS!!!! YES!!!
I’ve had a few branches of the most excellent ACLU brand some cards, as well. It’s really flattering.
Funny aside… a guy I used to know got really upset with me for adding “All Criminals Love Us” as the alt tag over my ACLU link. Some peeps don’t have a sense of humor. I happen to know that several big shots in the ACLU think “All Criminals Love Us” is hilarious. You know why? Because it is.
I fucking love the EFF.

Downsize DC is a tremendous organization (hence the .org ?) and have begun yet another campaign that people who love freedom might want to get involved in.
They’ve made it super easy to send a letter to your “representatives” and let them know how you feel about issues. It’s a great thing.

Another gadfly to the state dares to demand some privacy and is harassed and punished. FORTUNATELY, his phone is recording the proceedings.
Well done. Well done, indeed.
Read the comments. Many of them will break your heart.

He’s been maligned in the news. Labeled racist. Misquoted. Hated by the “people who matter”.
He must be doing something right.
Today and tomorrow (august 19 y august 20, 2010) Rand Paul is trying to set an internet moneybomb record.
That’s all.

Downsize DC is embarking on yet another grassroots campaign (it’s what they do) to roll back the wildly unconstitutional USA PATRIOT ACT. (I exaggerate to clarify)
The good news is that some parts of the PATRIOT Act could expire at the end of the year. This provides an opportunity to roll back many of these dangerous provisions. Toward this end Senator Russ Feingold introduced the JUSTICE Act (S. 1686) on September 17, Constitution Day. JUSTICE stands for the Judicious Use of Surveillance Tools In Counterterrorism Efforts.
