By certain measures, “overall secrecy has actually increased rather than declined,” said Steven Aftergood, who runs the Federation of American Scientists’ Project on Government Secrecy. “Criminalization of unauthorized disclosures of information to the press has risen sharply, becoming a preferred tactic. Efforts to promote public accountability in controversial aspects of counterterrorism policy such as targeted killing have been blocked by threadbare, hardly credible national security secrecy claims.”
A Washington Post report from this past summer concluded that “by some measures the government is keeping more secrets than before.”

David Gregory seems to have a limitless capacity for being a jerk. He recently mocked Wayne LaPierre for his suggestion that armed cops be placed in schools.
Yet when it comes to his own kids, well, the school they attend has armed guards.
Then the guy who calls for more and stricter gun laws decided he was above the gun laws:
"David Gregory is being investigated by police over the gun magazine that he showed on Sunday’s “Meet the Press.”"

And I sit here and wonder whether they remember it at all themselves. I hope they do.
Sippican Cottagge brings us the following video in a post they so aptly titled "When You´re A Dad, Every Day Is The Best Day Ever, Until Tomorrow". It took me back to a time when both my boys were very young, a time when my wife worked second shift, a time when I spent evenings doing things like what you´re about to see, times I treasure now, times that give birth to an emotion of longing and reminiscing that are incredibly strong, even overwhelming...

The reason President Obama and Republicans can’t come to an agreement on the fiscal cliff negotiations is that they don’t share the same goals. This is also the key to understanding why President Obama appears far less worried about going over the cliff.

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to work harder to persuade ideological friends and foes alike that the way to reduce partisanship and maximize happiness in America is to embrace federalism — the view that we should push as many decisions as possible to the lowest local level feasible.

There is an irrefutable truism that, whether directly attributable to Orwell or not, is still…a trusim: “Men sleep peacefully in their beds because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.” It doesn’t matter who said it. It’s true. Those doubting that are living in their own cozy world of make believe. Meet William L. Gensert and the very recognizable challenges of being a Conservative in LiberalLand.

The Obama administration is following the direction of the United Nations and suppressing any mention of radical Islam’s association with terrorism. Even the word “terrorism” is being censored because it has become associated with Islam. Remember President George W. Bush’s “War on Terror?” The phrase has disappeared, even though terrorist attacks are increasing. Obama has stopped using the phrase.

The single best way to respond to a mass shooter is with an immediate, violent response. The vast majority of the time, as soon as a mass shooter meets serious resistance, it bursts their fantasy world bubble. Then they kill themselves or surrender. This has happened over and over again.
...The average number of people shot in a mass shooting event when the shooter is stopped by law enforcement: 14. The average number of people shot in a mass shooting event when the shooter is stopped by civilians: 2.5. The reason is simple. The armed civilians are there when it started.

The year 2012 saw the triumph of cold reality over pie-in-the-sky dreams.
Barack Obama in 2008 won an election on an upbeat message of change in the hope that the first black president would mark a redemptive moment in American history. Four years later, the fantasies are gone. In continuing dismal economic times, Obama ran for re-election neither on his first-term achievements — Obamacare, bailouts, financial stimuli and Keynesian mega-deficits — nor on more utopian promises.
