"Ladies & gentlemen:
"The Clinton administration "de-emphasized" fighting Arab international terrorism to focus on domestic terrorism - namely, white 'right-wing' militia groups - which led to the FBI ignoring Arab nationals flocking to U.S. flight schools, veteran FBI agents told WorldNetDaily." |

"In an attempt to alert my readers of the increasing propensity of the Bush administration to foist unconstitutional, even tyrannical, laws upon the American people (under the rubric of fighting terrorism), I found that many readers appear more than ready to accept these Orwellian, police state attacks against their freedoms.

"In principle, ours is a government of laws, and not of men, as enunciated by John Adams when he penned the historic Declaration of Rights, which became a part of the Massachusetts Constitution.

Hi, I'm Bill O'Reilly. Thanks for watching us tonight.
A very disturbing situation involving the widow of a pilot killed in the 9/11 terror attack. That is the subject of this evening's Talking Points memo.
...But Senator Hollings, incredibly, refused to hear the woman, saying the committee didn't have time, even though Mrs. Saracini petitioned for a hearing months ago.
This is, #1, an outrage, #2, disrespectful to a woman who has endured tragedy, and #3, undemocratic. |

ELLEN SARACINI, WIDOW OF 9/11 PILOT: Well, I want to say to the senators that we need to have the armed pilots in the cockpit. The cockpit is now the last line of defense. And we need to have it secure. We need to make our skies safe and we need to have all our citizens of the United States safe.
O'REILLY: All right. So, it's as simple as that. I mean, you don't have anything else other than your contention that everybody would be a lot safer if pilots were armed? |

"There was no reasonable way for the Seattle city attorney to avoid filing charges of illegal weapons possession against James Kelly. Nor is there a reasonable way to regard the local president of the Urban League as a threat. The way out of this conundrum is to negotiate a deal that will impart to Kelly a lesson but preserve his ability to continue his good work." |

"It is common verbal shorthand to say "The president runs the country." If this is taken to mean that he is the commander in chief of the armed services and speaks for us with other nations, well and good. But all too easily, the words may be taken literally. That’s not good."
"In fact, the president does not 'run' the country. He does not even 'run' the federal government. He directs the executive branch of the federal government." |

"They thought they were making routine purchases—the innocent, everyday pickups of charcoal and hummus, bleach and sandwich bags, that keep the modern household running. Regulars at a national grocery chain, these thousands and thousands of shoppers used the store's preferred-customer cards, in the process putting years of their lives on file. Perhaps they expected their records would be used by marketers trying to better target consumers. |

"The gunman, Andre Beasley, was sentenced to six years in prison. This story didn’t make much of a splash in the media. But that is standard procedure for cases like this, where black assailants and white victims are involved. The New York Times was silent. The Los Angeles Times turned a blind eye. USA Today didn’t notice. The Washington Post devoted 52 words...— with no mention of its interracial component. Relatively few Americans outside of Ohio ever heard about Raymond Bozak’s death." |
