Some New Topics

Here are some interesting topics for discussion:

Rumsfeld's final memo
see: http://web.mac.com/davidhschwartz/iWeb/SchwartzHome/Thanksgiving%202006.html

  • Would love to discuss how this reflects on administration's handling of the war to date

US giving up right to Habeas Corpus - citizens vs. foreign nationals
  • Would like to discuss the underlying tension between giving the Executive Branch these powers and the need to keep us safe
  • Also, reflect on how this type of drastic measure has not been needed since the Civil War
  • Finally, how comfortable are we as conservatives to give this power to one branch of government
