ACLU Slams Senate Judiciary Committee’s Approval of NSA Spying Bills :
"Congress has a right and obligation to conduct meaningful
oversight on the unlawful actions of the president. But
instead of investigating lawbreaking, the Senate Judiciary
Committee wants to make it legal. We urge the full Senate
to reject any attempts to ratify this illegal program."

US Senate Floor Remarks
The United States is a weaker power now, especially in
the Middle East, but also in the court of world opinion.
Where is the America of restraint, of peace and of inspiration
to millions? Where is the America respected not only
for her military might, but also for her powerful ideas
and her reasonable diplomacy? Continue

Where is the evidence?
Paul Craig Roberts
There are many problems with the 9/11 debate. Many
different interests are using 9/11 to advance their
agendas. Security interests use fear generated by
9/11 to erode civil liberties and establish the foundations
of a police state. Federalist Society members in pursuit
of a stronger executive use 9/11 to justify concentrating
power in the White House, power that violates the
separation of powers in the US Constitution. Continue

White House Gambit on Torture Reveals Rift with Military Leadership
In the "guise of calling for fair trials" for terrorist suspects,
asserts New Yorker magazine commentator George
Packer, "the President demanded that Congress give him
the power to go on torturing detainees in secret prisons
and use the evidence obtained against them. And last
week the Army honorably closed the holes in moral
conduct that the President, his [White House] counsel,
the Vice-President, the Justice Department, and the
Secretary of Defense pried open shortly after September
11th. It did so not only to remove the stain on its
reputation and to protect its soldiers but because it
cares more about the war than about the next election."
