AvangionQ rated 4 months ago- From Digg commenters: "It is NOT ok that this administration is spying on us! Why isn't there more outrage about this! The fact that TIME supported this craziness by saying that we support it is horrible. Hopefully the next administration will not allow this to happen. We live in the United States of America...I am so upset by this!" - queenmoweeny ... // ... "Did any of you people read the TIME article? It wasn't glorifying the fact that Americans don't care it was just pointing out that they really don't seem to. And its the truth. Sure people might be aware of it, but just as with gas prices people bitch but then accept it and move on. It's an absolutely horrible situation but if you don't believe that to be the case, wake up and look around." - scallon ... // ... it is both sad and frightening that the American people are so complacent that they will roll over and accept what's happening to them -- this fascist shift that we're seeing, as this government becomes more entrenched with Big Business and Corporate controls, is a precursor to closing down one of the greatest Democracies -- and yet, not enough people are angry ...

- From the page: " "I think there is probably joy throughout the terrorist cells throughout the world that the United States Congress did not do its duty today," said Representative Ted Poe, Republican of Texas. This is the kind of pure, unadulterated idiocy -- childish, cartoonish and creepy -- that Democrats for years have been allowing to bully them into submission, govern our country, and dismantle our Constitution."

- One of the tortures I endured yesterday was watching the House hearing involving Roger Clemens and the trainer who claims to have injected him with steroids. The press could not have been any more riveted and was fully knowledgable of every relevant detail. Almost every House Committee member came to the hearing thoroughly prepared, grilled the witnesses with the expertise of an experienced litigator, and thundered about the grave seriousness -- and consequences -- of lying to Congress. The drama was high, the gravity palpable, and the interest level intense. Ponder how much better our country would be if even a fraction of all of that were conjured up for acts of chronic lawbreaking and serial lying by our highest government officials, rather than our baseball stars.

Amnesty Day for Bush and lawbreaking telecoms From the page: "If things proceed on the course now set by the Bush Administration and its shortsighted collaborators , and the national surveillance state is achieved in short order, then future generations looking back and tracing the destruction of the grand design of our Constitution may settle on yesterday, February 12, 2008, as the date of the decisive breach. It hardly got a mention in the media, obsessed as it was with reports on the primary elections, the use of drugs in sporting events, and that unfailing topic, the weather. . . . Their vote summed up everything that's wrong with Washington politics today. Fear and hard campaign cash rule the roost, and the Constitution is regarded as a meaningless scrap of parchment, indeed, a nuisance." "Who would have guessed that after 235 years, the fate of America, its ability to survive as a Nation, would depend on giving license to AT&T and Verizon to break the law without being sued by their customers in court?"

- Glenn Greenwald Wednesday June 13, 2007 09:58 EST The al-Marri decision Having now carefully reviewed the Al-Marri decision (.pdf), as well as ample commentary from those defending and criticizing the opinion, there are several points worth making. But the overarching point is how extraordinary it is -- specifically, how extraordinarily disturbing it is -- that we are even debating these issues at all. Although its ultimate resolution is complicated, the question raised by Al-Marri is a clear and simple one: Does the President have the power -- and/or should he have it -- to arrest individuals on U.S. soil and keep them imprisoned for years and years, indefinitely, without charging them with a crime, allowing them access to lawyers or the outside world, and/or providing a meaningful opportunity to contest the validity of the charges?

- ABC admits their story connecting Saddam Hussein and Anthrax was wrong. From the page: "For five straight days, ABC -- on virtually every one of its news programs, and out of the mouths of virtually every one of its media stars -- breathlessly told the country that there was compelling evidence linking Saddam Hussein to the anthrax attacks (at the same time they were claiming that there were "confirmed" reports of a meeting between Mohammad Atta and Iraqi intelligence officials). They repeatedly led their viewers to believe that there was compelling, if not dispositive, evidence that Saddam Hussein and Iraq engineered the anthrax attacks on this country.
That was a major, major story with untold consequences on how Americans thought, and on how some Americans still think. And that story turned out to be completely wrong. "
