Holder Proves that the Trial in NYC is Just a "Show Trial"

Posted by Defend America on Wednesday, November 18, 2009 4:12:07 PM

Holder: 'I Have Thought About' Detainees Not Being Convicted

Sen. Charles Grassley (R., Iowa): “I don’t think you can say that failure to convict is not an option, when we have juries in this country.”

Attorney General Eric Holder: I have thought about that possibility. Congress has passed legislation that would not allow the release of these individuals in this country. If there is not a successful conclusion to this trial, that would not mean that this person would be released into this country . . .

Schwarzenegger rules out another run for office


Wed Nov 18, 11:01 am ET

MILAN – California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger won't say what his plans are when his term expires next year, but it won't be running for another office.

"I have never labeled myself as a politician, so I am not going to run for anything else," Schwarzenegger told reporters on Tuesday.

Schwarzenegger said he will spend the next year trying to solve problems including a projected multibillion dollar shortfall in next year's budget.

Dean of Harvard Medical School Gives ObamaCare an F

Health 'Reform' Gets a Failing Grade

The changes proposed by Congress will require more draconian measures down the road. Just look at Massachusetts.


By JEFFREY S. FLIER

As the dean of Harvard Medical School I am frequently asked to comment on the health-reform debate. I'd give it a failing grade.

Instead of forthrightly dealing with the fundamental problems, discussion is dominated by rival factions struggling to enact or defeat President Barack Obama's agenda. The rhetoric on both sides is exaggerated and often deceptive. Those of us for whom the central issue is health—not politics—have been left in the lurch. And as controversy heads toward a conclusion in Washington, it appears that the people who favor the legislation are engaged in collective denial.

Global Warming Bill Delayed Until the Spring in the Senate

Senate to Put Off Climate Bill Until Spring



By IAN TALLEY

Senate Democratic leaders said Tuesday they would put off debate on a big climate-change bill until spring, in a sign of weakening political will to tackle a long-term environmental issue at a time of high unemployment and economic uncertainty.

Legislation on health care, overhauling financial markets and job creation will be considered before the Senate takes up a measure to cap emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases linked to climate change, Senate Democratic leaders said Tuesday.

Climate legislation will be taken up "some time in the spring," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada said Tuesday after a Democratic caucus meeting.
