Not surprised that he gets to keep it

There's been some back and forth silliness about whether Barack Obama can keep his Blackberry. All the pundits said "no way" but I thought, geez, the guy is President (did you hear?) all he has to do is say: 'make it so':

"On Monday, a government agency that the Obama administration  -- but
that is probably the National Security Agency -- added to a standard
blackberry a super-encryption package.... and Obama WILL be able to use
it ... still for routine and personal messages." (from Marc Ambinder in Atlantic)

But, he won't be allowed to use IM :)
