My new hero is Judge, Vaughn R. Walker, the chief judge for the Northern District of California.
Now that it seems apparent our Democratic-led Congress will roll over and let Bush have his way with the Constitution, the judicial branch may be our only hope to save the Constitution. Please read the article that Deb provided the link for below:
http://www.democrats.org/page/community/post/deborahwilliams/CRbQ/commentary#comments
FROM THE NYT:
--------------------
"Judge Rejects Bush’s View on Wiretaps
By ERIC LICHTBLAUPublished: July 3, 2008WASHINGTON — A federal judge in California said Wednesday that the wiretapping law established by Congress was the “exclusive” means for the president to eavesdrop on Americans, and he rejected the government’s claim that the president’s constitutional authority as commander in chief trumped that law.
The judge, Vaughn R. Walker, the chief judge for the Northern District of California, made his findings in a ruling on a lawsuit brought by an Oregon charity. The group says it has evidence of an illegal wiretap used against it by the National Security Agency under the secret surveillance program established by President Bush after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

Republicans love slogans -- they're short and they, therefore, cannot be substantive.
John McCain has resurrected the "liberal" and "tax and spend" slogans in this campaign. We cannot take this lightly. These are ingrained in the consciousness of middle Americans -- and much of it is our own fault (see my blog entitled "Elephantizing").
So, how do we frame the truth in slogan form -- something, as Jack Sparrow would say, "It's short, it's easy to remember...."
What is the truth?

Elephantizing refers to the process of training a baby elephant to stay tied to a stake with a rope.
When they first do this to the baby elephant, they use a thick, heavy chain. The baby struggles and struggles, but can't break free. He finally gives up in exhaustion, convinced he cannot break the chain.
Over time, they replace the chain with smaller and smaller chains and ropes, until the elephant will stay tied to a stake by a very small rope. By the time he is an adult, he could easily break the small rope, but, because as a baby he was convinced he could not break free, he accepts his confinement without question.
That is what they call elephantizing. Convincing someone they are powerless to break free of the chains that bind them.
How does this apply to us today?
