Saturday, April 9
What happened to the secular state? Is America disappearing as arch-conservatives attack everything outside their view of God and country? Is the anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-government domestic terrorist Eric Rudolph more a kindred spirit with today's Republican leadership than Karol Wojtyla? We've had weeks of news dominated by the hard right: Terri Schaivo's feeding tube; Tom Delay's attacks on judges; the Pope 24-7; the Arizona Minutemen's border patrols. Who is standing up for secular society? For NOT taking the law into one's own hands?
Our report from the border of the law and lawless includes Arizona Democratic State Rep. KYRSTEN SINEMA, Arizona Minuteman Project co-founder CHRIS SIMCOX and Arizona ACLU Vice-President CAROLYN TROWBRIDGE. We check in with "Guantanamo: Honor bound to defend Freedom," the play about U.S. abuses in the war on terrorism and NYC songwriter-singer NORA YORK and her new CD "What I Want."

The beginning of the End for Neo-cons (+ the stupidest quote of the year) by Magorn Fri Apr 8th, 2005 at 13:18:10 PDT http://tinyurl.com/4x76e
For the minions of the PNAC, the end is nigh. Conservatives with some residual decency have begun to turn on their neo-con brethren. Yesterday, while All eyes were fixed on Rome, Richard Perle and Gen Wesley Clark had a rematch in front of the same house Armed Service Committee they testified before in 2002 on the eve of the invasion. Things went a little differently this time: SNIP Rest at: http://tinyurl.com/4x76e
