Folly in the West Bank
Current rating: 0
24 Aug 2004
Masthead editoral in the New York Times condemning Bush's "dangerous passivity" over acceptance of Sharon's latest push to expand settlements: "To be just, workable and sustainable, any peace plan will have to divide that land into two coherent territories that are defensible and economically viable.

Federal Judge Harold Baker Named As Member of Secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court
Current rating: 0

Modified: 01:27:58 PM
A local federal court judge, Harold Baker, has been named as a member of the secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. The FISC is one of the most secretive parts of a court system which is increasingly slipping out of public view and review. The so-called "War on Terrorism" continues to erode traditional constitutional rights to confront accusers in open court is replaced by secret proceedings where the rights of the accused are mere after thoughts.

Democrats bend IL constitution to help Bush exploit eve-of-911 RNC timing
Current rating: 0
22 Aug 2004
Democrats have bent over backwards to exempt Bush from ballot access filing deadlines in 8 states so Bush can have the Republican National Convention so late (presumably so it is close to Sept. 11 to maximize Bush's post-convention "bounce").
