Put change.gov Under Revision Control! →
Now this is a great idea!  It would allow the public to see how Obama’s policies are changing from day to day.  This would be a great way to keep track of broken campaign promises and policy reversals that the media seems to never notice.

This makes absolutely no sense.  The city built a wall so it can be spray painted on and now they want to open a criminal investigation to find out who was the first person to spray paint on it.  Am I missing something here?
