However, how much do we really know about the no-call list to remember it so fondly? Can we be sure that it was not a fig leaf for the overall surveillance effort which surfaced a year or two later with the phone companies allowing massive NSA telephone surveillance? Has anyone looked into or written about this?

So give him credit for three. ;) I seem to remember Bush also created one of our largest ever marine wildlife reserves near Hawaii. So give him credit for three. ;)

They have also started a new section a couple of pages long with stories about stars and Hollywood gossip. And I think I don't like Joe Klein's comments nor his picture (he looks maudlin and sensitive, but not in a good way). I've extended my subscription for another year, but I think after that it will be good for the trash can.
