Feingold and Barr seem to be more stable than the average bear. The totally infuriating part is that it will take decades to undo the damage they're doing in a few short weeks. Mike

In all fairness though, I would bet that there are people in the Bureau who are saying "I told you so." It's tough to compete for airtime and budget no matter what organization you're talking about. > 'freedom' (disintegrating though it may be.) > I assign the attacks on civil liberties to a sorry combination of panic and opportunism. It's disgusting and shows how weak we are. If those proposing these measures had any courage or honor or respect for their country they would be eager to open a substantial debate both in public and in session. Instead, they are using chaos and panic to avoid responsibility. The brevity of the list of those who want to debate these issues honestly is far more depressing than all of the violence of the past month. See the reports on the sales of anti-depressants and sleep aids. Mike

Feingold amendment
by Steve Schear 12 Oct '01

12 Oct '01

The Feindgold amendment to S1510 (The Senate Anti-Terrorism Bill), which would have subjected LE requests for personal (medical, educational and library) and business records to a higher level of judicial scrutiny and stricter state provisions, was just tabled (defeated) by a vote of 89 to 8. Our only hope is in the House-Senate committee charged with working out differences between the two bills. steve

<<A letter containing a powdery substance was also received today in The New York Times offices in mid-town Manhattan. In a statement, the Times said that Judith Miller, a reporter at the newspaper, received the envelope and the substance was being tested. The Times said that the New York Police Department was called and is currently investigating the incident. Employees were moved from the newsroom on the third floor to other floors in the building while testing was done, according to the Times. >> http://www.nytimes.com/2001/10/12/national/12CND-ANTH.html

Re: Wired predicts use of Nukes

There's a huge Muslim population ( nearly a billion isn't it? ) that approves of neither the US strikes nor bin-Laden's activities or is barely even aware of what is going on. Bin Laden & Co are trying to convince Muslims everywhere to side with them and fight the infidels. The US is trying to convince people we are not at war with an entire religion. For the moment this seems to be true. So far the US has managed to get some level of assent from the world community and minimize the spread of unrest. Granted those nuclear weapons are probably always accessible but why would the US use them now and guarantee failure? It doesn't make sense. In short, why rush failure? It's already likely enough. There will be plenty of time to use those things later if the entire situation falls apart. That would suck beyond belief compared to the current situation which already sucks pretty terribly in too many ways to count. Mike
