New way to answer questions about the extreme

The Bushies have taught me something new. Here is how you handle questions about hypotheticals and extremes, just say that your happy you don't have to deal with it, then burn time giving the same stock line. That's what all the apologists are doing about the NSA domestic wiretapping scandal. If someone asks them if the President can now open peoples mail, they just say that it's a good thing that we aren't dealing with that question, then go back to the same line about how we all must give up our civil liberties in exchange for their awesome security.

So next time somebody asks me about how well my code will scale in the future, I can just say; "I'm just glad now isn't the future. It scales really well right now."
