Today's QUOTES: ... War Crimes are heinous and intolerable acts that all decent people reject; "anyone suspected of war crimes should be thoroughly investigated"; and War Criminals must not be allowed in any positions of authority . . . . except when the War Crimes in question are committed by Americans, in which case all investigations and accountability must be blocked and those who defended and even approved them are perfectly welcomed in our highest positions of authority ... -- Our political class in a nutshell by Glenn Greenwald, salon.com

Wolf Blitzer only thinks about Bush's desires ...

The Washington Post reports that two provisions of the UNpatriot Act have been judged unconstitutional: Patriot Act Provisions Voided --Judge Rules Law Gives Executive Branch Too Much Power by Dan Eggen

What caught my attention, though, was a C&L clip showing how Wolf Blitzer views these events. As setbacks for Bush. Not as hope for our country.

  • A rubberstamp Democratic 'controlled' Congress is a win for the most unpopular president in the history of the U.S. But Blitzer would never think of this as a disaster for the rest of us, oh no.
  • And a court ruling enforcing the Constitution is a setback for Bush's desire to tear the document up, not hope for a turn-around in the destruction of our country.
Here's the clip: BREAKING: Two more provisions of Patriot Act struck down (UPDATED with video)
