I Heart Chaos — Senator Joe “Droopy Dog” Lieberman wants Blogger to have a terrorist flag button

leave a comment »

Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut is famous for lots of really stupid fucking ideas, and just as his jowls keep drooping, the stupid ideas keep flowing. This time, he’s taken pen to paper to write a letter to Google, urging them to add a “terrorist flagging button” to Blogger, which in no way would ever be used for anything but responsible adults identifying real terrorist threats.Lieberman got the idea after it turned out that New York’s “lone wolf” terrorist suspect Jose Pimentel had a blog on Blogger. Because Lord knows, all the internet needs are more buttons to stop terrorism.
