Guess who recently added a signing statement to a postal reform bill granting himself permission to open and read any piece of domestic mail, at any time, without a warrant, without notifying the sender or the recipient, without documenting the fact that the mail has been tampered with?
I'll be happy to give him the opportunity to read a postcard that's actually addressed to him, from me, bearing the following text:
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Oh my. Troubling indeed!
Your comment on my last entry regarding the Dec/Jan eggs MADE MY DAY! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU.
And I'm so sorry to hear you are still having problems with your wisdom tooth extraction. Eeek!
Two more years. Two more years. Two more years. Please, may they go by quickly.
I guess some folks never learn, huh?
I think that if he feels he can open our mail then he should have to pay the bills in our mail too. It only seems fair.
