If you use the word "drone", it does sound all high-tech and Orwellian. But really, a "drone" is merely a computerized radio-controlled helicopter or airplane. With computing power and RC technology getting cheaper and cheaper, "drone" technology is pretty much at the point where ANYBODY can own a "drone" of their own. A quad-rotor with a camera controlled by an iPad is a "drone". It's a fantasy to think that we could prevent any organization from using this technology when it's already available to everyone at such a low cost. Already, the FAA is trying to overregulate RC aircraft. Good luck with that.

Given Keith Olbermann's miniscule ratings, does rebutting him have any effect other than increasing his audience?

In other words, does Olbermann really qualify as "Big Journalism" anymore?

Yes, I'm sure Tiger is the very first serial liar/adulteror to walk that course. Before now, only saints ever set foot at Augusta.

So... the message is that if you wear Nike clothes you'll be able to bang 21-year old chicks?

Nike will make millions!

Wait a minute. As long as she's an adult, what does the age of his horizontal mambo partner have to do with it? It may be despicable for the guy to cheat on his wife. That I can buy. But Tiger Woods is only 34. Sex with a 21-year-old doesn't seem all that strange to me.

Maybe it's cuz I'm 34...

Innocent until proven guilty, unless you're married to a Conservative CabMin.

I have yet to hear any member of any opposition party propose that the laws be changed to force Crown Prosecutors to provide a full, written explanation any time they drop any charges on a suspect.

Until they make such a proposal, I have zero interest in anything they have to say on l'Affaire Jaffer.
