Happy Easter

The 'discovery' in the previous post is purely based on information that I acquired via the television.

So far. . . what I've learned.

And Sam Kinison is one of them. (December 8, 1953-April 10, 1992)
Sadly Sam was killed by a drunk driver on his way to one of his sold-out shows Nevada.

"(I) Have A Dream"

In 1968 Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated.

J. Edgar Hoover instituted a surveillance campaign against him in 1961. In 1963 Hoover received approval from Attorney General Robert Kennedy to bug King's home and offices. In October, the FBI issued an internal report:
The attached analysis of Communism and the Negro Movement is highly explosive. It can be regarded as a personal attack on Martin Luther King. There is no doubt it will have a heavy impact on the Attorney General and anyone else to whom we disseminate it. It is labeled TOP SECRET.
In late 1964, Hoover called TIME magazine's "Man of the Year" and recent recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize "the most notorious liar in the country" to a group of journalists. Earlier that year, Marquette University received a phone call from the FBI, recommending that they abstain from giving King an honorary degree. The same thing happened to Springfield College. The FBI claimed that King was "Communist affiliated."
Jesse Helms (the idiot who publicly declared in 1988: "There is not one single case of AIDS in this country that cannot be traced in origin to sodomy.") excoriated him (for no useful purpose) on the Senate floor in October 1983.

Reverend King's dream is not gone, or it is a dream we should continue to strive for:
"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.' I have a dream that one day . . . the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood."

A few US Justices finally warn Bush about overstepping government authority

GOVERNMENT GETS A VICTORY AND A WARNING IN A TERROR CASE
Supreme Court invites Padilla to pursue an appeal if he's detained in limbo again

WASHINGTON - The Bush administration got a warning Monday from Supreme Court justices: We're watching.
The high court rejected an appeal from terrorism suspect Jose Padilla testing the president's wartime detention powers.
The 6-3 vote was a victory for the government. But an unusual alliance of justices invited Padilla to come back to the court if he is detained again in legal limbo.
Padilla had become a symbol of the administration's aggressive pursuit of terror suspects after Sept. 11.
The former Chicago gang member and convert to Islam was held in a military prison as an alleged enemy combatant for 3 1/2 years, part of that time without access to lawyers.
His supporters wanted the Supreme Court to use his case to declare that Americans cannot be arrested on U.S. soil and held incommunicado.
Justices appeared poised to do that last fall, but with Padilla's appeal pending the government changed its strategy. Prosecutors brought criminal charges in Florida, and now Padilla has traditional legal rights.
Three justices wanted the court to consider whether President Bush overstepped his authority by ordering Padilla's detention, even though Padilla is now a regular criminal defendant: Justices David Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen Breyer.
In addition, Chief Justice John Roberts, who was nominated by Bush last September, joined moderate Justice Anthony Kennedy and liberal Justice John Paul Stevens in signaling concerns about the government's handling of Padilla.
"In light of the previous changes in his custody status and the fact that nearly four years have passed since he first was detained, Padilla, it must be acknowledged, has a continuing concern that his status might be altered again," Kennedy wrote. "That concern ... can be addressed if the necessity arises."
The justices told lower courts to "act promptly" if the government changes the conditions of Padilla's imprisonment. They also noted a court rule that would allow a direct appeal.
The case is Padilla v. Hanft, 05-533.

In the nation known as USA, pronounced yoozah, a series of unexpected occurrences or perhaps ‘tradgedies’ sent waves of shock and relief across its population. The citizens of USA became unexpectedly afraid and happy simultaneously. One day it’s self-appointed leader (SAL) was accidentally killed. He managed to convince his two male security agents to allow him to ride on the roof of his HUMMER, shouting “Giddy-up!”, as the driver, SAL's friend Schvarney, did burnouts around the backbrush of his ranch. When Schvarney skidded, hitting a tree stump, SAL was hurled violently into the air. Before Schvarney could regain control of the vehicle he accidentally crushed SAL’s head like a grape. Because there were several diplomatic visitors at SAL’s ranch —some who had witnessed the tragedy—it was impossible for the press secretary to blame it on terrorists, although they tried to find a way to blame anyone except SAL. The two agents, who permitted SAL’s wreckless indulgence, resigned quietly, moved to Canada and got married.
The people waited desperately, glued to televsion sets and I’net terminals to see what the vice-leader would say to them about becoming USA’s new leader by default. They were stunned when he never appeared on any information source; he had disappeared. It would be discovered months later by CNNBBC-Span that the vice-leader had emigrated to The United Arab Emirates to live in his palace named Duxanax.
Then the people wondered if the secretary of state (SOS) would be appointed—if that was the next logical step but they didn’t know. The people didn’t follow the rules of government anymore because, well, neither did the government.
But soon it was evident that the SOS wouldn’t step into SAL’s position either. At SAL’s funeral, a cat-fight ensued between the secretary of state and SAL’s widow Aural. After the SOS flung herself onto SAL’s coffin moaning in pain about losing her only true love, Aural and her sorority sisters scratched the SOS’s eyes out while the secretary of defense, Rumhead, howled and whistled at the sight of women fighting. SAL’s widow then returned to her home state and married CP, her only true love. The SOS was granted permanent worker’s compensation and appointed do the weekly official podcast called, “Blind for the Nation.”
Time passed and no new leader was appointed, not even self-appointed. It seemed noone really wanted the position. And the people went back to excessive eating and oil comsumption and noticed that it didn’t matter; that the nation could be led by the House of Senate, Representatives and Judges.
From that year onward—and after The White House and few convertible-to-amusement-rides monuments were sold to the Disney Corporation (now run my secretary of defense)—the nation of "yoozah" never again had a one-person leader.
