Judge Tosses Ohio Voter Sign-Up Rules

CLEVELAND (AP) -- A federal judge threw out new state rules governing voter registration drives on Friday, saying they appear to violate the First Amendment and hurt efforts to sign up new voters. Effective immediately, voters should ignore references to criminal penalties on the registration forms, U.S. District Judge Kathleen O'Malley said. She gave the secretary of state's office five days to remove references to the rules and penalties on its Web site. Secretary of State Ken Blackwell, the Republican candidate for governor, said he plans to comply. "Voting rights in Ohio have just been emancipated and now our goal is to replace fear with enthusiasm," said one of the ...
WWII Hero Gabaldon Dies

MIAMI (AP) -- Guy Gabaldon, who as an 18-year-old Marine private single-handedly persuaded more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers to surrender in the World War II battle for Saipan, has died. He was 80. Gabaldon died of a heart attack Thursday at his home in Old Town, his son, Tech. Sgt. Jeffrey Hunter Gabaldon, said Monday. Using an elementary knowledge of Japanese, bribes of cigarettes and candy, and trickery with tales of encampments surrounded by American troops, Gabaldon was able to persuade soldiers to abandon their posts and surrender. The scheme was so brazen - and so amazingly successful - it won the young Marine the Navy Cross, and fame when his story was told on television's ...

Sung KooKim, a 32-year-old Tigard man who stole college women's underwears, has been sentenced one more time for the thefts. After the fourth part of a four-county plea agreement, Kim faces a total of 11 years in prison. In Benton County on Wednesday, Circuit Judge Janet Holcomb sentenced him to 31 months in prison for burglary charges stemming from the theft of underwear and other personal items from Oregon State University residences in 2004. He has previously been sentenced in Washington, Yamhill and Multnomah counties. Joo and Dong Kim were at Wednesday's hearing, where their son quietly apologized. Joo said her son is mentally ill and having a difficult time in prison. "He says ...

An Army investigator has recommended the death penalty for four soldiers accused of murder during a raid in Iraq. Lt. Col. James P. Daniel Jr. made the recommendation in report obtained Saturday by The Associated Press. Daniel found several aggravating factors that warrant a sentence of death in the case of four soldiers accused of killing three men during the May raid in the Salahuddin province. Staff Sgt. Raymond L. Girouard, Spc. William B. Hunsaker, Pfc. Corey R. Clagett, and Spc. Juston R. Graber, all of the Fort Campbell, Ky.- based 3rd Battalion, 187th Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, were accused in the deaths. The soldiers have claimed they were ordered to "kill ...

RNC will be using its money for TV commercials that will portray the Democrats as defeatists who, if elected, would undermine national security

Starting in early September, the RNC will be using its money for TV commercials that will portray the Democrats as defeatists who, if elected, would undermine national security. "Karl pulled it off in two successful presidential runs," said Brad Blakeman, a Republican strategist and former Bush aide. "In 2002, we took the Senate back. In 2004, we made more gains in both houses. I think Karl is going to use the strategies that have proven effective in the past - that is to play to our strengths, which the Democrats have constantly miscalculated. They perceive our weakness to be the war, but they have never won using the Iraq war as an issue," Blakeman said. When ...

Parsing the Riddles of Bob Dylan's 'Modern Times' = dylan live doubleday field cooperstown new york saturday night

Don't bother obsessing over the title of Bob Dylan's marvelous if mysterious new album, "Modern Times." Yes, it's an intriguing choice of words from a man who's a bit of an anachronism. And yes, it's the same title of the old Charlie Chaplin movie about one man's struggle to adapt to an industrialized world. But decoding the message is a waste of time, what with so many other, more puzzling matters at hand. For instance, what in the world is Dylan doing riffing on Alicia Keys in the opener, "Thunder on the Mountain"? Is the craggy folk singer and bluesman actually lusting after the young R&B starlet? Is she a metaphor for something or somebody else? Does Dylan ...

They Shot the Wrong Lincoln by Ann Coulter In addition to supporting Democrat Joe Lieberman over Republican Alan Schlesinger in Connecticut, President Bush is supporting the Democrat over the Republican in Rhode Island, too. In the Republican primary, Bush supports Lincoln Chafee -- who votes with Bush on the important issues less often than Sen. Lieberman does -- over the only actual Republican in the race, Stephen Laffey. Apart from Bush, the only person who hasn't figured out that Lincoln Chafee is a Democrat is Lincoln Chafee. As the expression goes, if Chafee switched parties, the average IQ on both sides of the aisle would go up. It's hard to figure why Bush would support a ...

First Source of C.I.A. Leak Admits Role - Richard L. Armitage

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 — Richard L. Armitage, a former deputy secretary of state, has acknowledged that he was the person whose conversation with a columnist in 2003 prompted a long, politically laden criminal investigation in what became known as the C.I.A. leak case, a lawyer involved in the case said on Tuesday. The identification of Mr. Armitage as the original leaker to Mr. Novak ends what has been a tantalizing mystery. In recent months, however, Mr. Armitage’s role had become clear to many, and it was recently reported by Newsweek magazine and The Washington Post. In the accounts by the lawyer and associates, Mr. Armitage disclosed casually to Mr. Novak that Ms. Wilson ...
FISA Surveillance Can Target Non-Spies

The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) can be used to monitor U.S. persons who engage in unlawful collection of classified or controlled information even if they are not acting on behalf of a foreign power. That is the upshot of an August 14 ruling (pdf) disclosed last week in the case of two former officials of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). The defendants had argued that they were improperly subjected to FISA surveillance since FISA requires that the target be "an agent of a foreign power" and, they insist, they were never acting on behalf of a foreign power. Judge T.S. Ellis, III, rejected that defense argument. But in doing so, he ...

Israel is carefully watching the world's reaction to Iran's continued refusal to suspend uranium enrichment, with some high-level officials arguing it is now clear that when it comes to stopping Iran, Israel "may have to go it alone," The Jerusalem Post has learned. One senior source said on Tuesday that Iran "flipped the world the bird" by not responding positively to the Western incentive plan to stop uranium enrichment. He expressed frustration that the Russians and Chinese were already saying that Iran's offer of a "new formula" and willingness to enter "serious negotiations" was an opening to keep on talking. "The Iranians know the world ...

WASHINGTON - Sen. Joe Lieberman, attacked by fellow Democrats as being too close to the White House on the Iraq War, on Sunday called on Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to resign but said the United States cannot "walk away" from the Iraqis. Lieberman, the one-time Democratic vice presidential candidate, is running as an independent in his bid for a fourth term since losing the Democratic nomination to newcomer Ned Lamont, who harnessed voters' anger against the war in Iraq. Lieberman, an early supporter of the Iraq war, said he had called for Rumsfeld to step down in 2003. "With all respect to Don Rumsfeld, who has done a grueling job for six years, we would benefit ...

McCain: U.S. not winning in Iraq WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 (UPI) -- U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., says the United States is not winning the war in Iraq and he still thinks more troops are needed on the ground. McCain, a possible GOP presidential candidate in 2008, appeared Sunday on NBC News' "Meet the Press." Asked whether the United States was winning the war, McCain said, "I don't think so, but I'm not sure that it's turned into a civil war ... I think it's been well documented now that we didn't have enough (troops) there from the beginning, that we allowed the looting, that we did not have control, particularly ...

Judge rules Bush's domestic spy program unconstitutional A federal judge ruled Thursday that the government's warrantless surveillance program is unconstitutional and ordered an immediate halt to it. U.S. District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor in Detroit became the first judge to strike down the National Security Agency's program, which she says violates the rights to free speech and privacy as well as the separation of powers enshrined in the Constitution. "Plaintiffs have prevailed, and the public interest is clear, in this matter. It is the upholding of our Constitution," Taylor wrote in her 43-page opinion. The Justice Department appealed the ruling and issued a statement ...
