...Court's landmark Roe v. Wade decision guaranteeing abortion rights throughout the country. And even if Roe is reversed in the future, states will be free to preserve abortion rights, and many almost surely will. Today the tussle is over not whether abortion will exist but how. In that respect, the terms of the debate have caught up with the public's attitude toward the issue: polls consistently show that most people in the U.S. want abortion to be legal; they just don't want it to be easy...
...judicial oversight of eavesdropping, how can the President be prevented from using it for personal gain? Do the American people really have that much trust in the Bush Administration after the lies about the reasons for the war in Iraq?

To that end, we support efforts by Massachusetts State Senator Jarrett T. Barrios and Representative Timothy J. Toomey to pass legislation that will oblige...
...Like most Western journalists in Iraq, Jill always wore a headscarf and ?abaya,? or Arab cloak, when she left her hotel. Many journalists regard these as nothing more than protective garments, designed to help them blend into the Iraqi crowds. But Jill said she wore it out of respect for the local culture, and she felt Iraqis responded to that and respected her in return. I pray that she is right...
