In the Sentinel interview, Young was asked about whether he was concerned Wal-Mart causes smaller, mom-and-pop stores to close.

"Well, I think they should; they ran the `mom and pop' stores out of my neighborhood," the paper quoted Young as saying. "But you see, those are the people who have been overcharging us, selling us stale bread and bad meat and wilted vegetables. And they sold out and moved to Florida. I think they've ripped off our communities enough. First it was Jews, then it was Koreans and now it's Arabs; very few black people own these stores."

Damn I thought I was in a time warp reading a campaign message for JB Stoner for Gov. until the last 7 words.

What Mike AI and others have missed is that the Judge made her ruling based on whether or not the administration had the legal authority to do what they did.

The very simple and legally undisputable answer is No, they did and do not have the legal authority. The administration can claim all sorts of emergencies and state secrets that made it necessary, but they don't have the legal authority as the law exists now. The laws are very explicit, and they do not give the administration the power to do what they did in the manner in which they did it.

If you need proof of this, besides reading the constitution I mean, look at the bill introduced by Arlen Spector, which specifically attempts to give the administration the legal power and authority to do what the administration has already done.

If they had the authority, there'd be no need for this new law.

and MikeAi. The lunatic right is everywhere. You need to be on guard for the McCarthyites amongst us. These people are freeking dangerous. They care nothing about civil rights, just protecting their wealth. And you see where the world is today because these guys sneaked in and siezed control. Usually by nefarious means.
