Please don't be obtuse. You know perfectly well Assange is worried the Swedish charges are just an excuse to get him to Sweden, where he'll be turned over to the Americans.

America, as you know, is so terrified by terrorism that they hold kangaroo courts for people like Assange. It's very likely he'd wind up spending the rest of his life at Guantanamo Bay if he were foolish enough to go back to Sweden."

Yeah, I can see some kind of Jurassic Park scenario playing out when they try this, and with our luck it will occur in Winnipeg, which is renowned for the size, voracity and general thuggishness of its female mosquito population.

I have little doubt we'll wind up with packs of mosquitoes sporting flannel shirts, Doc Martens and schnozz spikes the size of a rhino horn, along with the general demeanor of a Conservative whose wife just left him for an environmentalist.

This little circus shows security-conscious potential customers something very important about Cyberlock: their first response to an issue affecting the customer's security is to attempt to punish the person who found it.

Seriously...who wants a company like that in charge of security? I'd like to see some lawsuits from existing clients over false advertising and failure to act as one would reasonably expect a security company to act.

Horseshit!

A lot of Democrats knew perfectly well refusing to support the Iraq Invasion, having been handed cherry-picked intelligence apparently proving what we now know was deceitful nonsense, would be an electoral death sentence. And you know perfectly well the CIA was screaming bloody murder about the phonied-up garbage coming from Bush and his neo-con chickenhawks.

Are you always this dishonest, or do you have to work at it?

Sadly, you've completely forgotten one of the most important elements of the show: BBC is commercial free. This gave the hosts incredible range to slag any car they didn't happen to like.

Try that on a show where just about all of the advertising revenue is coming directly from the auto industry and see what happens.
