Supreme Court turns up the heat?

Frag Hag · 05-31-2006, 01:12 AM

There is an old folk tale about frogs and boiling water. Simply it states that if you place a frog in a pan of boiling water it will jump out immediately. If you place that same frog in a pan of cold water and raise the temperature slowly, the frog will doze quite happily in the warming water... until it is too late.

I was reminded of the sleeping frog when I read this little gem:

Is it just me, or does anyone else see the danger in the limiting of freedom of speech?

The guys that work at the pentagon are not allowd to talk about their work with the public, area51 employee's are sure tight-lipped for some reason, and I still have never been able to get away with yelling, "I know something you don't know," while standing in line at the airport screening terminal...

This country is going straight to hell!
