Reading this threat I picked up a copy of the Securing AJAX
Applications book by Christopher Wells. Too bad it only briefly
touched on anything specific to AJAX. Honestly this was the first
O'Reilly book I have ever regretted purchasing since it has very
little useful information that is related directly to its title. If
you want a high level, generic view of web app security, this might
fit the bill...

that we are to stand by the president right or wrong, is not only
unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American
public."
