US gov's 'ultimate database' run by a felon  

By Thomas C Greene in Washington

We all know that truth is stranger than fiction, and here we have an 
apparently real item straight from the realm of Tom Clancy. Imagine a 
huge, absolutely huge, central database containing both the official 
and commercial data of every single citizen, run by the US military 
ostensibly for anti-terror and Homeland Security purposes, and all of 
it under the direction of a convicted felon.  

Well the database is in development and coming soon, according to the 
New York Times; and the felon who will run it is disgraced Reagan 
administration liar, dirty-trickster and cover-uper Admiral John M. 
Poindexter, who Dubya has taken out of mothballs to keep us all safe 
from dreadful evildoers.
