They don’t have one. Who’d a thunk it, eh? I’ve lived a stone’s throw away from the border for most of my life and never knew. But that’s going to change soon. The Royal Canadian Geographical Society and Canadian Geographic is conducting a poll for the National Bird Project. They hope Canada will have an official bird by 2017, the country's sesquicentennial.

From a Wall Street Journal News Alert this evening:
The Justice Department has been building a national database to track in real time the movement of vehicles around the U.S., a secret domestic intelligence-gathering program that scans and stores hundreds of millions of records about motorists, according to current and former officials and government documents.
The primary goal of the license-plate tracking program, run by the Drug Enforcement Administration, is to seize cars, cash and other assets to combat drug trafficking, according to one government document. But the database's use has expanded to hunt for vehicles associated with numerous other potential crimes, from kidnappings to killings to rapes, say people familiar with the matter.
Are we all just sharecroppers, working for the man in exchange for a share of our birthright?
Look out! The ghost of Huey Long has taken over for all three of Dickens' spirits and is haunting the Corporate Democrats.
Chris Hedges:
" . . . The Democratic Party used to watch out for the interests of Labor, and even for the poor, but that changed, ah, but that all changed under Bill Clinton.
Ah, although Clinton, like Obama, continues to speak in that 'feel your pain' language of traditional liberalism, ah, they've completely betrayed the very people that they purport to represent and defend."
