I can't stop laughing!

so I'm snooping around change.gov and find this little gem in the "Defense" section:

Expand to Meet Military Needs on the Ground: Barack Obama and Joe Biden support plans to increase the size of the Army by 65,000 soldiers and the Marines by 27,000 troops. Increasing our end strength will help units retrain and re-equip properly between deployments and decrease the strain on military families.

Fully Equip Our Troops for the Missions They Face: Barack Obama and Joe Biden believe we must get vitally needed equipment to our soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines before lives are lost. We cannot repeat such failures as the delays in deployment of armored vehicles, body armor and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles that save lives on the frontlines.

National Missile Defense: An Obama-Biden administration will support missile defense, but ensure that it is developed in a way that is pragmatic and cost-effective; and, most importantly, does not divert resources from other national security priorities until we are positive the technology will protect the American public.

THIS IS REAL OT, but interesting. Listen to podcast.
I was wondering if anyone could answer my question.

[Link: www.blogtalkradio.com...]

It features a very interesting podcast interview on web transparency.
According to the author, 40% of all computers worldwide are infected by spambots that hook up tens of thousands of computers to send out spam
and search for people who do online banking & stocks.

My question is this: If computers are being hijacked without the owners knowledge doen't the computer's IP address get hijacked too? Then why can't a program be created that tracks these IPs back to their source and have these crooks arrested?

Also, might another program be created that would automatically alerts the owner of a hijacked computer.

Isn't there anyone out there smart enough to compete with the hackers creating these insidious viruses, worms, etc.

Anybody?

re: #67 Fat Bastard Vegetarian

Those words sound queer. Kinda funny.

Ever wonder what the whack jobs would do when they can no longer blame Bush for everything? Well, we're about to find out. They're going to blame Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin blamed by the US Secret Service over death threats against Barack Obama

The Republican vice presidential candidate attracted criticism for accusing Mr Obama of "palling around with terrorists", citing his association with the sixties radical William Ayers.

The attacks provoked a near lynch mob atmosphere at her rallies, with supporters yelling "terrorist" and "kill him" until the McCain campaign ordered her to tone down the rhetoric.

But it has now emerged that her demagogic tone may have unintentionally encouraged white supremacists to go even further.

The Secret Service warned the Obama family in mid October that they had seen a dramatic increase in the number of threats against the Democratic candidate, coinciding with Mrs Palin's attacks.

Michelle Obama, the future First Lady, was so upset that she turned to her friend and campaign adviser Valerie Jarrett and said: "Why would they try to make people hate us?"

The revelations, contained in a Newsweek history of the campaign, are likely to further damage Mrs Palin's credentials as a future presidential candidate.

re: #158 arethusa

From your link: "The revelations, contained in a Newsweek history of the campaign, are likely to further damage Mrs Palin's credentials as a future presidential candidate."

That little bit of editorializing reminded me of this comment on "Post-Journalism" from Victor Davis Hanson:

"In the 3rd book of his history, Thucydides has some insightful thoughts about destroying institutions in times of zealotry—and then regretting their absence when there is a need for refuge for them. The mainstream press should have learned that lesson, once they blew up their credibility in the past election by morphing into the Team Obama press agency.
There will come a time in the year ahead when either Obama's unexamined past will come back to haunt him, or his inexperience and tentativeness in foreign affairs will be embarrassingly apparent, or his European-socialist agenda for domestic programs simply won't work. And as public opinion falls, what will MSNBC, the New York Times, the editors of Newsweek, a Chris Matthews or the anchors at the major networks say?
Not much—since they will have one of two non-choices: (1) either they will begin scrambling to offer supposed disinterested criticism, which will be met with the public's, "Why should we begin believing you now?" or "Why didn't you tell this before?", or (2), They can continue as state-sanctioned megaphones of the Obama administration in the manner that they did during the campaign. They will lose either way and remain without credibility."

re: #173 jaunte

Ya think? floppingaces has the 'too little too late' BS from WaPo

When Gov. Sarah Palin was nominated for vice president, reporters were booking the next flight to Alaska. Some readers thought The Post went over Palin with a fine-tooth comb and neglected Biden. They are right; it was a serious omission.

Folks:

I know a lot of people have been complaining that Obama has flip-flopped on a bunch of issues, but, to be honest, I think that's a good thing for our country. My only concern is that when he moderates his policies and brings them closer to the right, he'll actually do really well and people will assume that the positions he took during his campaign worked.

Which they didn't and wouldn't. But if he does well, then more power to him!

re: #172 realwest

Methinks that the Democrat secretary of State in Minn. is into this attempt to deprive Norm Coleman of his victory.

Shades of Washington '04 where the Republican wins, then Dems keep recounting and "finding" "misplaced ballots" until the Democrat pulls into the lead, at which point the courts immediately declare the winner and order a stop to all further recounts.

re: #181 GGMac

That ego knows no bounds

Unfortunately he's nowhere near as smart as he thinks he is. I know plenty of modestly gifted people with the same kind of unjustified arrogance. Intelligence and wisdom are two VERY different things.

The world, especially the U.S. is about to get a historic lesson in hubris.

Time to worky!

As far as I'm concerned, this is yet another attack on the young by the political class. Obama's clearly a brilliant man, but how can he be so stupid when it comes to national service? You can't teach American kids civics by forcing them to do community service work. We're stubborn, in fact, that's our singular national virtue. For a guy who spends so much time decrying cynicism, he sure seems to be pushing a program that will make the next generation even more cynical than me and my millennial buddies, and we're a tough act to follow. Call me a skeptic, but this "Ve haf vays of making you serve" program just doesn't seem like the kind of thing that encourages civic-mindedness. In general, coercion doesn't tend to produce good results.

Read the whole thing.

They should have used pellet guns, or at least .22 shorts. Start at the feet and work their way up. Check after every volly, and bandaide the bullet holes to prevent blood loss. PLus have an hour break between shots so that the shooters don't get worn out by it.

I only hope that Obama can take his NatSec briefings and see them through the eyes' of a realist, not the leftie ideologue he has demonstrated himself to be during the campaign.

re: #162 MandyManners

Wasn't there a version of that one in which Pres. Reagan spoke Farsi and Arabic and ran circles around his aides?

Funny thing is, they could have done the same sort of skit about W, considering how there are folks out there who think he was both an evil genius who knew about 9-11 in advance and lied us into war, while at the same time being a bumbling idiot smirking chimp fratboy.

re: #193 logboy

I'm still trying to decide which way this guy is really going to go - will he just wander aimlessly around in terms of policy trying to make the most happy or is he biding his time until he gets into power and will exert executive privilege to an extent far beyond Bush 43 (which had the Dems having fits) in order to implement his community organizing change by fiat if not by Congressional rubber stamp.

I do think, just as in 1992-3, the 'middle class tax cut' will go by the wayside as 'conditions have changed'. Hell, here in CA, Ahnold has pulled the same stunt - now announcing that CA's budget problems are not from overspending and overcommitments for the revenues, but from a revenue shortage and calling for a 1.5% increase in the state sales tax to 'make up the difference'. (Interesting note - almost every massive spending proposition passed - including LA County's Measure R (subject to recount). If Measure R passes and Ahnold get's his tax hike, sales tax in LA County grows from 8.25% to 10.25%. That should help the economy. /sarc)

It seems to be the general feeling here, or at least, the hope of most, that we are hoping that Obama will be a centrist. That now that he's elected, he will govern as more to the right.

I find this completely odd and out of sync with what he have been discussing during the entire election cycle. The fact that he is a socialist, completely left-leaning liberal for 2 years and suddenly when he seizes all the power in the land, he will magically be a centrist is foolish and wishful thinking.

He will govern just as he campaigned. He will govern as Jimmy Carter, part 2.

This is inevitable. Stop wishing he'll suddenly be conservative. He's not going to.

He looked like a yard dog who had been beaten down by his masters -

Is he the one who dated his nanny?

Given his role in the Clinton Machine - and his support of Hillary in the primaries, Rahm Emanuel's pick by Sen. Barack Obama might appear at first blush to be surprising. But Mr. Emanuel has long been comfortable moving between two worlds.

An Israeli citizen until he was 18 years old, he broke with other leading Democrats to vote for the Iraq War. His father was a member of the Irgun, the Jewish underground organization led by Menachem Begin which the British condemned as terrorists.During the 1991 Gulf War, Mr. Emanuel was a civilian volunteer in the Israeli Defense Forces.

Interesting. It continues:

And now, a thought experiment: what would Rahm Emanuel do if he had Congressman John Boehner's job as House Minority Leader?

That's easy. Put as many long-range torpedoes into the water aimed at Senator Obama's ship of state before Republicans lose control of the Executive Branch as possible. Here are a few:

FWIW, he ran right when he campaigned. Liberals always do to get elected. He made gaffs that would have been the death knell of Clinton or even Carter, yet he won. He sees a mandate, and will shift back left as is clear from some of his statements in the final days. The question is whether he will go back to his original position as the most liberal socialist in the senate, or whether he will continue further to the left to appease his master Soros.
