Internets Beware; Watch What You Post

Quick entry for today, and for most of this week, as it is exam week. Additionally, next week I will be out camping with Peter O (you should recognize his comments) in the snow and freezing my ass off... I have no idea if I will get some posts done and delay-posted or not, but I will have something up on those days.

Anyways, onto the real story. I am somewhat careful of what I post online. Sure, I have some interesting ideas that I share with you all, and I have some photos of me doing questionable things (drinking and shooting) both on here and on Facebook. But, I really am quite careful when it comes to overall information. There have been times when I posted something inappropriate, or dangerous to myself, but I usually remove them, or ask that they are immediately deleted. That said, there is a problem in this country with people who don't pay attention to this issue, so, alas, I need to warn you all on some things...

Over the weekend, CNN, and more importantly Liberal Common Sense posted a nice little blurb on the fact that the chief Obama speech writer had a nice picture up on his Facebook. It was quickly removed. Anyways, the images showed him dancing with a cutout Clinton and one of him groping the same cutout while another person gives her a beer. The more damning thing, is the fact that the other person has OBAMA STAFF on his shirt. Wow, idiots...

So, here is the deal, how can people really think that this is a good idea? I mean, you have hard workers, clearly intelligent men, but all they are doing is screwing around and telling us about it. If Obama had posted this picture, there would be a huge, huge issue. Seriously, this was a big move, and the fact that Obama did not remove the offender is a clear sign of how his administration will be run. I do, however, approve of how Clinton handled the whole thing.

So, basically, I am saying that you should all be careful of what you post online. What you say today will matter tomorrow.
