Alan Colmes Whips Up on Karl Rove Over War Powers
Here we look Rove argue against persons having the right to habeas corpus, which he regards as "ridiculous". Rove thinks it's "a terrible decision" to ask the administration to have to bring evidence to a court proving a persons guilt. Why do these retards find it so shocking that they be required to bring proof against the people that they are holding in custody? I note that Rove also repeats the lie that persons released from Guantanamo Bay have arrive back to the US and committed acts of terr

The Micah Mandate: Intercession
"History belongs to the Intercessors" - Walter Wink A question was posed during lunch today, "how shall we pray in times like this?" The first thing that came to my mind was, "Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy, Lord have mercy". In addition to that many will add legs to their prayers in other ways too.. Both are needed. Reflection Pray for the nation by Bob Kee Read the article… Not everyone is called to take up the role of an activist or a politician. The mantle of the prophet is giv

Probate Attorney
Okay so the 2nd half of the year has started. Toni’s family is organizing a reunion for January of next year so everyone in the States will be coming over. So that would be like five families in every including a couple of our godparents during the wedding. I’m sure I’d be playing host for most of them since they always did the same while I was there visiting. I’d usually stay at ninong Nem’s place whenever I’m there. He’s been in the States since the mid seventies if I’m not mistaken. He’s a very

The sixties: Tom Wolfe and "Radical Chic" (2)
Jason Epstein reviewed Tom Wolfe's little tract Radical Chic and Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers (1970) in Journal du Voyeur New York Review of Books 12/17/1970 (link behind subscription). He gave this account of the background to Leonard Bernstein's fundraiser for the Panther 21, which I discussed in a previous post: Sometime in December, [wrioter Murray] Kempton, at the suggestion of the Panthers' lawyers, asked some well-connected and respectable friends who have a town home on the East Side

4th of July Bipartisan Parade Blog
4th of July Bipartisan Parade Blog Does the parade hoopla make a political difference? Well, it sells the idea of politics as patriotic, gets names and faces out there, and can be fun if done right. Coralville is one of the 4th bigger parades, and both parties brought the signs and the candidates. This being Johnson County, the Democrats had the bigger numbers... But the Republicans were out as well. The biggest political name at Coralville was Congressman Dave Loebsack. A buffer u

Suit accusing Bush of acting illegally tossed
Bob Egelko San Francisco Chronicle 7/03/08 A federal judge in San Francisco dismissed a lawsuit Wednesday that sought to prove President Bush acted illegally in 2001 when he ordered the wiretapping of phone calls between Americans and suspected foreign terrorists without court approval. Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker said an Islamic charity on the government’s terrorist list could not use a crucial classified document - an accidentally released memo indicating the charity and its law

Government Thinking Of Allowing Muslims To Be Investigated Just Because They Are Muslim
This is common sense but I doubt it will happen. I pray I am wrong. WASHINGTON — The Justice Department is considering letting the FBI investigate Americans without any evidence of wrongdoing, relying instead on a terrorist profile that could single out Muslims, Arabs or other racial and ethnic groups. Law enforcement officials say the proposed policy would help them do what Congress demanded after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks: root out terrorists before they strike. Although President Bush ha

A stay in Texas
from local media: The execution of Lester Bower has been stayed. Judge Jim Fallon has withdrawn the death warrant, while lawyers argue whether DNA testing of the evidence is just. District Attorney Joe Brown says this does not mean Bower will not be executed. If the judge denies the DNA request, or if DNA testing is done and nothing new is found, then the execution will most likely be re-scheduled. On October 8, 1983, four men were shot to death at an ultra light airplane hangar East of Sher

Am I living with a terrorist?!
I just read about the FBI's proposed new policy of finding terrorists by using racial and ethnic profiling. Ever on the alert, I decided to take a closer look around our neighborhood for suspects. Didn't have to go far. There she was, sitting on what I now recognize as a prayer carpet, right by our front door, clad in a semblance of her native Islamic garb. Thank you, Attorney General Mukasey.
