POPSTHE ALMIGHTY SUPREME COURT (fiction) (A thinkingblue personal opinion) When Gore lost the ability to have a recount in 2000 and the Supreme Court awarded the presidency to George W Bush, I knew exactly what was going to happen within this holiest of Courts. I knew, the great headway that was made to lessen human suffering would probably be overturned and that future supreme decisions would be handled by the judges, W. Bush would get to nominate to give the conservative ideology a court majority. It seems this de ja vu I felt was right on target. It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out! The republican party has for 50 years had this as their goal. But I wished the hell I knew why? thinkingblue You can also view it here: http://www.thethinkingblue.com/swf/BOSTONLEGAL.html

POPSIndependent Commission of Inquiry into the Israeli Attack on the USS Liberty 
The chairperson on the Independent Commission in 2004 was Admiral Thomas Moorer (Ret.). He had a storied career including Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It concluded that... · Israeli planes had observed the Liberty for eight hours before the attack · June 8 was a clear day with unlimited visibility · Survivors testify that a 5 by 8 American flag was flying all day on the Liberty until it was shot away and replaced by an even larger flag. · The flag was flying in a 12-knot breeze for most of the afternoon. · The Liberty's five American radio channels were jammed during the attack. The Egyptian military did not broadcast on those frequencies. · The Israelis machine-gunned the three life rafts the crew put out when it appeared the attack had let up. (This would assure there would be no survivors). · The Israelis claimed the Liberty had been mistaken for an Egyptian ship. However the Egyptian ship, a 1920's era horse carrier was a quarter the size of the Liberty

POPSProsecuted For Attempted Abortion From the Boston Globe article: Abreu's fate hinges on how far along her pregnancy was when she took the pills, a point the state medical examiner's office is trying to determine in an autopsy. Prosecutors said they believe it was between 23 and 25 weeks. Abortion is illegal in Massachusetts after 24 weeks, and any action intended to cause a miscarriage after that threshold could prompt homicide charges, prosecutors said.
