CAPS-II to be resurrected...
|
A day or two ago, I told you that CAPS-II was delayed. Ridge (Director of Homeland Security) promised it was dead, and even made stabbing motions like a stake to a vampire's heart. It played well to the cameras, I'm sure. But I predicted that it would come back under a new name and a black budget, just like TIA did. Turns out I was right. There were two things that tipped me off. First, my abiding cynicism regarding government; we've already seen this trick with TIA and I figured they would try the same thing. Second, everyone knows that if you unstake a vampire, he'll rise again. Even Ridge's little pantomine drives the point home; vampires are undead. They come back from the dead on a nightly basis. And apparantly that's what CAPS-II will do, at least until after the election. |
