See Ann Coulter's latest column on the subject. She's says it much much better than I can.

And then we should put Coulter's column next to Hentoff's, debate their points (they both have them), and forge a workable middle path on tribunals. But implementing tribunals via E.O. doesn't accomplish that, and although I have some level of trust for Bush, I personally don't trust Ashcroft as far as I can throw him.

Well, I differ with you on Ashcroft. I think he's wonderful!!!!! ....and a far cry from Rambo Reno.

forge a workable middle path on tribunals

There is no third way. Just take what either has in the way of tenable proposal true to the letter of our Declaration and Constitution and apply them.

(Or, just cut to the chase and follow Henthoff in this instance.)

But implementing tribunals via E.O.

I don't think it was an EO ...

Remember Bush saying we were attacked by those who hate our freedoms? Perhaps his approach is that, by eliminating those freedoms, he and his administration are reducing the likelyhood of more attacks.

After all, as even most freepers seem to believe, what's freedom when you can have the illusion of security? ;~)
