I just don’t understand who in the Bush Administration thinks this was a good idea, given the happenings today in Congress. WASHINGTON – President Bush has quietly claimed sweeping new powers to open Americans’ mail without a judge’s warrant, the Daily News has learned.

Well this is the month of politics. This coming Thursday (1/4), the new Congress (110th) convenes with a new Democratic leadership in both the House and the Senate (hands up if you will be tuned to C-SPAN at 12 Noon EST).

It was okay, a little disappointing, and not really appreciated… Continue reading
