purdymouth Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Ashcroft: Supreme Court Giving More Rights To Terrorists U.S. Attorney General In Miami, Says Government Weighing Ruling http://www.nbc6.net/news/3479259/detail.html MIAMI -- U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft said Wednesday that the U.S. Supreme Court gave more rights to terrorists in three recent decisions, and Justice Department attorneys are poring over the rulings to determine their consequences. "The Supreme Court accorded to terrorists, in a variety of cases this week, a number of additional rights," he said. "We're digesting those opinions in terms of making sure that we adjust or modify what we do, so that we accommodate the requirements as expressed by the Supreme Court."

Madame Wrecked Him Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Ashcroft: Supreme Court Giving More Rights To Terrorists I have never understood why, if governments had truly captured terrorists, their justice system is considered insufficient to put them away for a long time. Innocent until proven guilty does not apply to terrorists, it appears. But the government also does not allow for the possibility that there are innocent people among the bad guys, captured in error. Undemocratic governments the world over do this to justify detention without trial, and Ashcroft making public statements like this is very disturbing to me.

Drano Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Happy Canada Day eh? I'll be missing the fireworks show in Edmonton again this year They usually have a real good one out over the river, right in front of the Convention Center. Absolutely beautiful. Happy Canada Day, y'all. I note that Hang Seng is closed for "holiday." So they celebrate Canada Day too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiding Bear Posted July 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 The final piece of the puzzzle is construction. I think you can begin to say uh oh there also. I have a friend in the steel business, not you MH. He's telling me that new projects are getting pulled before they finalize bids. When the build-outs start completing, I think were' going to see the impervious construction workers drop like flies. And all of their suppliers, right on down the line to the guy digging for copper in Chile. Enjoy the Summer, I think it's going to be a very cold winter. Well done. I can only tell you about what I see in New Jersey. The numbers working in the home construction/reconstruction industry here has gone up a lot over the last few years. Partly this is driven by an aging housing stock that requires some repairs. However I don't think those repairs wouldbe so readily undertaken with out low interest rates for home refinancings and the expectation that improvements in your home will always pay off. Whne the RE bubble cools, many will unfortunately lose their jobs - but worse of all they will have difficulty finding replacement work. BTW - Kachingo baby! Sold crude for $1 one day gain. Looking to go short either the bond or stock market later today after we see what the Fed and Gang of 23 does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whne the RE bubble cools, many will unfortunately lose their jobs - but worse of all they will have difficulty finding replacement work. Same thing in NY. Very dificult to find someone to do small repairs or small installation, like a new door. Seems quite a bit more speculative here. There is little in the way of buildable lots and tearing down an existing home is problematic. There is no shortage of additions, however. On my drive home there at least 5 1200sqft homes on 1 acre lots that have 6-7,000 sqft additions on them. No better indication of a mania in my eyes than seeing a perfectly good home turned into the foyer of a new mcmansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 Question on Mozilla Firefox: I don't know how to make it underline the posts I have read on Yahoo. When I right click, the command for print is not there. Is the Mozilla browser more full featured, perhaps, than Firefox? thanks Sherlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 1, 2004 Report Share Posted July 1, 2004 yobob 1 -- I think that you got it nailed. Hyper commercial construction taking place in my area -- all with large "Leasing Info" signs in front. There's going to be a lot of unused and unwanted empty space just sitting for years.
