Hypocrite Extraordinaire
In Texas Bush executed with pleasure a born- again Christian (like himself) named Karla Fay Tucker. Her problem was she confessed totally to her heinous crime instead of lying forever, like most of them. Her crime was committed while she was on coke/booze- something Bush did a lot of once, but still refuses to admit. Even the Pope and the ...

Amazing that Americans Have This Discussion
Having studied American civics in grade school and high school, and having my doubts that Bush Cheney or anyone else in our current White House similarly learned about American history, traditions, institutions and law, it continually amazes me that this Bush Cheney Presidency has run riot so egregiously. Congress? Lay down. The Courts? Lay ...

Finally someone makes the crucial point
When supporters of torture try to justify their position, it's always about the ticking time bomb scenario. That's because it's always easy to construct hypotheticals in which some heinous act appears to be less evil than some even more heinous alternative.

Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...

Why I'm an American in Exile...
On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004. Why did the CIA feel threatened by this? Because I revealed how they smuggled cocaine into the US using a front company called ''Skyway Communications''. ...

Still waiting for the "false choice"
For shame, Slate. Not you, Dahlia. Your point, while not precisely new ground, is a useful and worthy comment on how the Administration has abused the definitions on both sides of this question. I (mostly) agree - the true abuse in the Padilla case is the abuse of the categories, the deliberate use of inaccurate designation to game out ...
