Not Good.
NEWS ALERT
from The Wall Street Journal
April 28, 2008
The Supreme Court ruled Monday that states can require voters to produce
photo identification without violating
their constitutional rights, validating Republican-inspired voter ID
laws. In a splintered 6-3 ruling, the court upheld Indiana's strict
photo ID requirement, which Democrats and civil rights groups said would
deter poor, older and minority voters from casting ballots. Its backers
said the law was needed to deter fraud.

So Wrong for So Long: How the Press, the Pundits--and the
President--Failed on Iraq (Paperback)
<http://www.amazon.com/So-Wrong-Long-Pundits-President-Failed/dp/14027565

"Bill Moyers, one of the country's great journalists, praised this book
for good reason -- it is a heartbreakingly convincing account of how the
media failed to perform the role that Jefferson and Madison
envisioned--to serve as critical interrogators and skeptics of the
government instead of its enablers. Mitchell details how the media aided
and abetted George Bush, Hillary Clinton and others in the Congress as
they recklessly and unquestioningly blundered into the Iraq war. I hope
that every journalist reads and learns from this well informed account
and that every American reads it and starts demanding more from the news
media created to keep us informed. This is one the most im****tant books
of the past few years."
