ACLU: 'Terrorist Watch List Hits One Million Names.' Hecukva job. Via Matt Yglesias.

Colbert has an update on the superhuge terror list I blogged about a few weeks ago: it turns out notorious freedom-hater Nelson Mandela is on it.



Here's a BBC report with more.

Man, I've been slack today. Here are a few things I've been looking at:

* A list of science fiction with a linguist bent.
* 'The Return of the Paranoid Style': How Iraq brought us not John Wayne but Jason Bourne.
* Every bit of spoiler news there is about the upcoming season of Battlestar Galactica.
* New York Governor David Peterson's daily revelations are becoming sort of hilarious.
* Eric Alterman on the death of the American newspaper.
* The end of suburbia, this time in the Boston Review.
* We're #22! We're #22!

Bad news, 'muricans: there are 900,000 terrorists among us. That's right; 1 in 300 people is a terrorist. I'll let that sink in.

This is why we can't have nice things civil liberties.
