By James Thindwa

Beating the drums for democracy can be inspiring, but, in international [...]]]></description>

By Tom Burghardt
Under the rubric of cybersecurity, the Obama administration is moving forward with a Bush regime program to screen state computer traffic on private-sector networks, including those connecting people to the Internet, The Washington Post revealed July 3.
That project, code-named &#8220;Einstein,&#8221; may very well be related to the much-larger, ongoing and [...]]]></description>

By Jason Leopold
George W. Bush justified his warrantless wiretapping by relying on Justice Department attorney John Yoo’s theories of unlimited presidential wartime powers, and started the spying operation even before Yoo issued a formal opinion, a government investigation discovered.

The Central Intelligence Agency crucified a prisoner in Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad, according to a report published in The New Yorker magazine.

Finally, the Supreme Court has made a good decision on civil liberties.
