If we don't do stuff like unwarranted searches, seizures of property, and restriction of speech, how will we protect our way of life? Exactly.

It's funny that it takes touching penises to get the conservatives to suddenly realize that they hate the TSA too. Before the junk-touching started, conservatives laughed at any notion that liberties were being taken away for the sake of safety. But a man's private parts are more important than his liberties, naturally. T-shirts with this same quote are being hawked on all the right-wing new sites.

Needlepoint is done with yarn, and each stitch goes one way. Cross-stitch is done with thread, and makes crosses on the fabric. This is, of course, trivial, but as someone who's rooting for the success of needle arts, I like to spread knowledge of the right vocabulary :) A minor correction, which should in no way detract from my enthusiasm for this clever item: that sampler happens to be cross-stitch, not needlepoint.
