...prisoners. Are we seeing a trend? Perry thinks that may be exactly what we're witnessing, but Robert Cottrol isn't so sure. Cottrol who is professor of law at the George Washington University School of Law in Washington , D.C., specializes in criminal law and legal history. He urges caution when trying to discern macro-movements within the Court. "We can certainly distinguish three Justices - Breyer, Stevens and Ginsburg - who are deeply skeptical toward the death penalty," says Cotttrol. "But beyond that, the other six Justices vary in accordance with the legal issues raised by specific cases...
...never-ending blue-ribbon commission--something the Bush team dreads. But there are few signs that the White House is, in fact, dissatisfied with Mueller. Even before last week, he quietly replaced more than a third of the FBI's senior executives, hoping to break open the culture of caution that so stymied agents in the field.

New York Police Department representatives on the task force passed along the information to their supervisors, who called N.Y.P.D. commissioner Raymond Kelly. He decided to post officers at both the statue and the bridge and make random checks of cars...
...what is really winning Lieberman cheers among dispirited party activists is his new assertiveness in Washington. While other Democrats have been exercising caution in speaking against the policies of a popular President, Lieberman has launched a frontal assault. Last week he called for delaying major portions of the Bush tax cut (prominent Democrats like Tom Daschle and Dick Gephardt have criticized the tax cut but stopped short of taking action against it). The Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, which Lieberman chairs, issued the first congressional subpoenas to the Bush Administration, demanding records about its Enron dealings. Lieberman critics say the move...
