Yes boys and girls, the FBI is getting serious. No more of this wimpy hunting terrorists and crap, the Bureau is now turning its attention to more important things: Porn.

Yes, the FBI has started a task force dedicated to eliminating pornography and offensive materials (Source). Apparently, this Quixotic cause is "one of the top priorities" of Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales and FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III. The task force will consist of eight agents, a supervisor, and support personnel. Their job will be to gather evidence for the prosecution of "marketers and purveyors" of offensive material.

And the kicker here is that it isn't child porn or anything illegal; it's all legal, consentual sexual acts.

I mean really, this is what we're wasting our time on? The federal government has made a total arse of itself in the face of hurricane Katrina, and we're putting resources into cracking down on porn? And it's not like the FBI personnel are in support of this either; they think it's one gigantic joke. An anonymous agent went so far as to say, "I guess this means we've won the war on terror... We must not need any more resources for espionage." I couldn't have said it better myself.

Sometimes I wonder if members of the current Administration just sit down at the end of the day, slap themselves on the forehead and yell "Stupid stupid stupid!" If not, I sometimes would like to do it for them.
