    Cheney and Free Speech

    i agree, if the campus/students that organized the event wanted a representation of both views, they should have organized a debate, roundtable, etc the idea that minutemen are in the wrong in their effort to assist law enforcement, on the grounds that borders are unethical or inhumane...

    Cheney and Free Speech

    assuming pabsts post is true, it would appear that free speech in america is threatened regardless of the party in power. reprehensible from both sides it seems case-by-case is the prudent way to evaluate these situations, and in this case so far it looks like the secret service acted unlawfully

    Cheney and Free Speech

    i just see a pattern on your part where whenever these questions come up, you instantly side with the right wing partisan pov, regardless of the issue. the cheney arrest article as well as an nyt article today on the incident both seem to point to it being a simple free speech issue, not an...

    Concurrent long and short same security?

    then ask a high end securities lawyer and they will say yes. ..at least if the intent is not to manipulate or cirvumvent upticks or tax deferral, but simply to get around short inventory problems. i should probably direct the question to IB compliance since the issue is really with...

    20 mins even, i believe then has the gumption to say his first thought was 'what a bad pilot' with all the lights 'Blinking Red' about a pending al qaeda attack involving hijackings going on in his administration, and clear awareness of both use of domestic aircraft and well known precedents...

    Did Ashcroft know about the 9/11 threat?

    what we see is an administration that keeps having to backtrack and revise their story on what they knew and what they did to prepare for 911. they even fiercely resisted the creation of an investigatory panel, insisted on creating it themselves which plainly lacks objectivity. if they keep...

    Did Ashcroft know about the 9/11 threat?

    i'm mystified by the lack of NORAD response and readiness. here you had an administration completely aware of a system that was 'Blinking Red', your DCI is frantic about it, anti-terror advisor is freaking out, calling meetings with everyone he can, your attorney general stops flying...
