I Spy Something Wrong

I rarely get into the political fray, but my jaw was on the floor as I watched this video.



There's more about the story from Newsweek. Apparently, the document that Ashcroft wouldn't sign was concerning the approval of the NSA's wiretapping program (spying on Americans without a warrant).

I'm sure stuff like this goes on all the time in Washington, but it scares me nonetheless. How do leaders expect my generation to stave off cynicism when they do stuff like this?

Leave it to Jon Stewart to capture the gravity of the situation.
