With all due respect, John, that's because you use a highly biased
definition of "liberal". Not your fault, you're simply repeating
something you hear all day every day.


Sorry, Chuck. I guess you couldn't see my tongue buried in my cheek. :)

I don't like the idea of transponders in boats either. But, I didn't like
the idea of recorders in my car telling anyone exactly how I've driven for
the last 15000 miles either.

I think the ones coming up with this idea are the same foolish idiots
wanting to inspect every container after it's unloaded in a port. Once
there, it's too late. Once a boat filled with explosives is under a bridge
or alongside a cruise ship, or anchored close to a refinery, it's too late.
