I want to hear from some politician what he is NOT going to do for us

Bush using drugs to control depression, erratic behavior
    Capitol Hill Blue

"Although the exact drugs Bush takes to control his depression and
behavior are not known, White House sources say they are 'powerful
medications' designed to bring his erratic actions under control.
While Col. Tubb regularly releases a synopsis of the President's
annual physical, details of the President's health and any drugs or
treatment he may receive are not public record and are guarded
zealously by the secretive cadre of aides that surround the
President. Veteran White House watchers say the ability to control
information about Bush's health, either physical or mental, is
similar to Ronald Reagan's second term when aides managed to conceal
the President's increasing memory lapses that signaled the onslaught
of Alzheimer's Disease." (07/28/04)

Beijing threatens war with Taiwan
    BBC News [UK]

"A senior Chinese official has warned that Beijing may attack Taiwan
by 2008 if President Chen Shui-bian pursues his plans for
constitutional change. Mr Chen has insisted the planned amendments
are only concerned with local issues, but Beijing suspects he has a
pro-independence agenda. ... China sees Taiwan as a renegade province
which it has threatened to reunite by force if Taiwan declared
independence." (07/30/04)

5) Hot second: Libertarians the new political center?
    PRWeb

"If the presidential election was held today, only three of one
hundred Americans would vote for Libertarian candidate Michael
Badnarik. But he's the second choice of more than four in 10.
According to a nationwide survey of 1,000 Americans conducted last
week by Rasmussen, Democratic challenger John Kerry (D-MA) leads
incumbent president George W. Bush by a slim margin of 46-43% --
within the 3% margin of error. However, when polled on their second
choice, 43% chose Badnarik rather than their first choice's main
rival." (07/30/04)

6) Police arrest three, restore calm near FleetCenter
    Boston Herald

"Peaceful protest on Canal Street turned ugly with demonstrators
setting a fire and going toe-to-toe with billy club-toting cops in
the the first serious violence of the Democratic National Convention.
... The violence broke out when a rally of about 500 people wound
through downtown and stopped at the iron gates guarding the DNC
delegate entrance outside the Fleet Center on Canal Street. Police
allowed the group to gather in the street, rather than forcing them
into the protest pen. One group from the Save Our Civil Liberties
Campaign tied themselves to a bike rack while another group set a
small fire. The fights started after police moved in on a man
carrying a backpack allegedly containing a paper mache Molotov
cocktail. Pushing, shoving and panic ensued as protesters, cops and
bystanders ran amok. Sporadic scuffles broke out, including one that
started when a demonstrator took a police officer's hat." (07/29/04)

7) Webmaster jailed under PATRIOT Act, released to halfway house
    San Francisco Bay View

"Political prisoner Sherman Austin, who made headlines last year after
being targeted as one of the first casualties of the infamous USA
PATRIOT Act, was released from the Federal Corrections Institute in
Tucson and left Arizona July 12 to return to Los Angeles. The
nightmare doesn't end there for Sherman, though. He is being remanded
to the custody of a halfway house where he will serve the remainder
of his sentence until August 2004. Starting now and continuing
through the next three years, Sherman will be serving an additional
sentence of federal probation, under which he will not be allowed to
use a cell phone, computer or other digital device unless designated
by the government. In addition, Sherman has been forbidden any
contact with 'anarchist groups,' who, the federal government
maintains, 'advocate violence as a means of disrupting order and
achieving social, economic and political change.'" (07/29/04)

Woman arrested for eating candy bar
    Fox News

"A government scientist finishing a candy bar on her way into a subway
station where eating is prohibited was arrested, handcuffed and
detained for three hours by transit police. Stephanie Willett said
she was eating a PayDay candy bar on an escalator descending into a
station July 16 when an officer warned her to finish it before
entering the station. Both Willett and police agree that she nodded
and put the last bit into her mouth before throwing the wrapper into
a trash can. Willett, a 45-year-old Environmental Protection Agency
scientist, told radio station WTOP that the officer then followed her
into the station, one of several in downtown Washington. 'Don't you
have some other crimes you have to take care of?' Willett said she
told the officer. Washington has been under heightened security
because of the continuing threat of terrorism. And last week, police
declared a citywide crime emergency over rising juvenile crime."
