To prove my point, I use Fox News "Special Report with Brit Hume" clips from August 3, 6, and 20, 2007. I also used a short clip from an August 7 segment of "The Colbert Report" that is available in full on the Comedy Central website at: http://www.comedycentral.com/motherload/index.jhtml?ml_video=90951 The old version of the FISA law to which I refer in my video is available online at: http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/50/1801.html And, the new version of the FISA law to which I refer in my video is available online at: http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=110_cong_bills&docid=f:s1927enr.txt.pdf Also, you can see the ACLU ad campaign to which I refer that criticized the deal between the Democratic Congress and the Bush Administration at: http://action.aclu.org/site/DocServer/BAAAD_ad.pdf?docID=1541 And, finally, this video qualifies as one of DOZENS of examples on my FOX NEWS BIAS playlist at: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D Tags: ACLU, FISA, Fox, News, american, bush, civil, congress, democratic, liberties, nsa, spying, surveillance, union, warrantless, wiretap 1 Downloads - Last from: (Your Blog here!)

More ACLU related videos at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=6AE692952E99F09F When President Barack Obama issued an executive order last week clearly breaking his promise to close the US military prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, Jon Stewart's commentary on "The Daily Show" really got to the crux of the issue by pointing out that holding human beings in prisons without evidence treats them more like animals in zoos, as I show in this video. The clips I use of Thomas Friedman come from the June 11, 2006, broadcast of CBS' "Face The Nation," a longer segment of which is available online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_6hCZYVvpU The clip I use of President Barack Obama promising to close the US military prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, comes from my own previously monetized video uploaded November 20, 2008, available online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgCqFtnXYfY The clips I use of Jon Stewart come from the March 9, 2011, broadcast of Comedy Central's "The Daily Show," a longer segment of which is available online at http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/wed-march-9-2011/moveon-aww---trials-resume-for-guantanamo-detainees The image I use of President Obama's March 7, 2011, executive order titled "Periodic Review of Individuals Detained at Guantánamo Bay Naval Station Pusuant to the Authorization for Use of Military Force" comes from the webpage at http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2011/03/07/executive-order-periodic-review-individuals-detained-guant-namo-bay-nava The public domain image I use of President James Madison comes from the webpage at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:James_Madison.jpg The quote I use of James Madison's speech proposing the amendments to the US Constitution that became the Bill of Rights comes from the webpage at http://www.jmu.edu/madison/gpos225-madison2/madprobll.htm The image I use of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) fight against indefinite detention comes from the webpage at http://www.aclu.org/indefinitedetention/ Tags: Barack, Bay, Daily, Guantánamo, Obama, President, Show, aclu, american, bill, broken, civil, close, confront, constitution, cuba, detainees, detention, due, evidence, gitmo, indefinite, jury, liberal, liberalviewer, liberties, military, of, on, prison, prisoners, process, promise, right, rights, stewart, terror, trial, union, us, viewer, war, witnesses 1 Downloads - Last from: (Your Blog here!)

A battle is now raging over Real ID in state legislatures across the nation, with a growing number of states rebelling against this expensive (and unfunded) scheme. The piece features Bill Cattorini, a retired Chicago fireman who has been caught in a bureaucratic limbo due to a discrepancy between his birth date as listed on his driver's license and the date on his social security card. That was never an issue until Illinois began trying to comply with some parts of Real ID.
