Take 2

Earlier this week, buzz came about that the 16-year Ruler of Wisconsin, Tommy Thompson placed a bid for the ought-eight Presidency. While a long-shot, considering the evil doosh satchel John McCain is also considering turning the great American meat-grinder, I will offer my concern.

Despite the fact that Tommy Thompson's little brother, Ed Thompson, is a great man, the sinister elder gives us a great deal to worry about. Consider following his tenure as Bush Cabinet Health and Human Services Secretary:

Shortly after leaving his Bush Cabinet post, Thompson joined the board of directors of Applied Digital Solutions, makers of the controversial VeriChips: glass-encapsulated RFID devices to be injected into human flesh for identification purposes and for use as a payment device. He acquired a considerable share in the company. In public appearances, he suggested injecting the microchips into Americans to link to their electronic medical records. Thompson also suggested implanting the devices in military personnel as a replacement for dog tags.

Please do something, Ed.

Why get all worked up about RFID's? If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear.

Here's a YouTube clip of the Pet Shop Boys ID card protest song, Integral.
OK, Ok, that doesn't sound too good, but it's really a good song. The clip kinda sucks as it is from Dr. Who.

"If you've done nothing wrong you've got nothing to fear/ If you've something to hide you shouldn't even be here/ You've had your chance now we've got the mandate/ If you've changed your mind I'm afraid it's too late/ We're concerned you're a threat/You're not integral to the project."

Yeah, that's a bit of copypasta. too damn lazy to type it out myself.
BTW, it's great to see you finally getting comments on your posts. i felt sorry for you for a while with your 0 comments, 0 comments, etc.
