Alberto Gonzales on the Freedom of Information Act

For some reason, this reminds me of Ozzy Osborne's commentary on drug use.

Winston examined the four slips of paper which he had unrolled. Each contained a message of only one or two lines, in the abbreviated jargon -- not actually Newspeak, but consisting largely of Newspeak words -- which was used in the Ministry for internal purposes. They ran:

times 19.12.83 forecasts 3 yp 4th quarter 83 misprints verify current issue

times 14.2.84 miniplenty malquoted chocolate rectify

times 3.12.83 reporting bb dayorder doubleplusungood refs unpersons rewrite fullwise upsub antefiling

With a faint feeling of satisfaction Winston laid the fourth message aside. It was an intricate and responsible job and had better be dealt with last. The other three were routine matters, though the second one would probably mean some tedious wading through lists of figures.

It was quickly apparent what this was when I started watching it, and I immediately tried to put myself in the mindset of one of its intended audience. No matter how hard I try though, every time I see it, I feel like I'm falling down the rabbit hole. It is truly surreal.
