We were discussing the rank hypocrisy of liberals when it comes to Obama/Bush using essentially the same surveillance techniques. During the conversation I remembered ths E.O. from FDR and Googled it during a break. How many howling liberals during the Bush Administration knew their patron saint established an office of censorship? Added bonus: the Executive News Editor of the AP took a leave of absence to head up this office!

2nd Bonus: FDR making reference to the media behaving patriotically and already agreeing to withhold information to protect troops. Not just a different time, a different world...
