The White House sucks. Again.

By midafternoon that day, the [bin Laden] video and a transcript of its audio track had been leaked from within the Bush administration to cable television news and broadcast worldwide. The founder of the company, the SITE Intelligence Group, says this premature disclosure tipped al-Qaeda to a security breach and destroyed a years-long surveillance operation that the company has used to intercept and pass along secret messages, videos and advance warnings of suicide bombings from the terrorist group's communications network.

In enabling the White House, Congress sucks even more.

Two months after insisting that they would roll back broad eavesdropping powers won by the Bush administration, Democrats in Congress appear ready to make concessions that could extend some crucial powers given to the National Security Agency.

Nobody remembers.

You can't trust these clowns.

Time and again, they abuse access to intelligence.

Every. Body. Sucks.

Update: Here's hoping that the suckage doesn't suck quite as much as the NY Times suggests.

UPDATE 1: 2 demos + 2 demos = 4 rough demos to hold you over.

UPDATE 2: Pix from the show are online at The Hidden City.



Mark your calendar for a HiddenCity reunion of sorts Saturday night with Amy Abdou (visiting from the Netherlands) and MotherJudge at Franklin's Tower on Broadway in Albany. My set kicks thing off around... 8ish?

And yes, you may be at the Knick that night to see some other famous rock 'n rollers. We'll probably still be hanging out afterwards late night if ya wanna stop by.

Amsterdam Amy returns

Amy Abdou was a mover and shaker on the Capital Region music scene, almost from the time that she began singing with Hand Held Moon back in 1991. She released several sparkling albums before she relocated across the Atlantic to Amsterdam.

Well, she's back to visit and the Amy Abdou Band will step into the spotlight at Franklin's Tower in Albany for a homecoming performance at 8 p.m. Saturday. Opening the show will be Mitch Elrod and MotherJudge, as well as Bryan Thomas.
