Wednesday's Links
Activism
Drinking Liberally. They just added a DC chapter. Have fun and get involved! (Thanks to Mike Brauwerman for the link.)
News
Thanks to Neil A. Lewis for helping us to remember the little things. Like those hundreds of detainees being held in Guantanamo Bay. Federal Judge James Robertson ruled that Bush "overstepped his bounds." It'd be nice if this was a little more widely reported.
Send in the Drills. President Bush turns his energy agenda towards Alaska, and now has his best bet yet to start drilling for oil in a wildlife preserve. Bet Alaskans are mad they voted for him, eh?
The Democrats now realize that their lack of a voice on faith and "moral values" issues played a big hand in the last election. But did you know that not all church groups are on the right? This Associated Press piece will help fill in the blanks. If you think this isn't that big of an issue, you'd be well served to read this.
Editorials
Travesty of Justice. In honor of John Ashcroft's resignation, we post a classic Krugman article describing him as the "worst attorney general in history". It's important not to forget how reprehensible he was.
It's never too soon to think about retirement. Both The New Yorker and The New Republic (free subscription required) challenge you to do so. Are you happy with the President's plan for Social Security? The next time someone mentions "privatization", we hope you'll challenge them to think about the real implications of this ill-conceived policy.
