"Now President Bush, with no such Congressional declaration, is using that Roosevelt mistake as precedent for his own dismaying departure from due process. Bush's latest self-justification is his claim to be protecting jurors (by doing away with juries). Worse, his gung-ho advisers have convinced him — as well as some gullible
commentators — that the Star Chamber tribunals he has ordered are "implementations" of the lawful Uniform Code
of Military Justice." --- William Safire

Dear Karen,

I read Safire's article this morning. I never thought that I would have to depend upon a right-wing-conservative
extremist to defend Democracy in America. Apart from Safire's other article on Bush and Dictatorial
Power, I've never read Safire's articles. In fact, I've never met anyone who reads Safire's articles!
(LOL). Always, I wondered why The New York Times published Safire's opinion. Now,
I know that Safire has a strong commitment to Democracy in America. Mephisto
