...phlegmatic, we might leap to the conclusion that if you want someone hanged right, don't leave it up to Shi?ites. But since we are groggy with antihistamines (and wouldn't mind getting rid of our own heads, the way they feel at the moment), we can suspend judgment. This thing of losing one's head may be an old Sunni gallows trick. As when Saddam - just by being so him - provoked his executioners into treating him with insufficient dignity. If you can't cheat the hangman, as the saying goes, you can at least make him look insensitive...
...Open - we didn't say, oh, and by the way, when you suspend and we come to the table, we'll just talk about your nuclear weapons programs.

Here the lens dissembles as much as it documents, stretching "the camera never lies" maxim to breaking point. Appropriately titled Tensio-Latin for tension-is Brook Andrew's mirrored image of a currawong poised as if to attack a coiled snake. These are in fact stuffed museum exhibits, reappropriated by this Aboriginal lensman to tell his own personal Dreaming story (as academic Marcia Langton tells it, "When color spread...
...House and the Senate, Democrats had a lot to say about George W. Bush's use of Presidential power and what they claimed was Republican complicity in eroding both civil liberties and the authority of Congress. When the G.O.P. pushed through a bill granting Bush the ability to suspend the ancient right of habeas corpus for terror suspects, the man who would become the Democratic Senate majority leader after the election, Harry Reid, said, "The framers of our Constitution understood the need for checks and balances, but this bill discards them."
