Labels don't mater, frames mater. In an election you must own the frame. You must define the frame. We all know the issues and we we and our opponents stand. Do you support the troops? Yes. By demanding that we remove them from harms way in the middle of a religious civil war I show that I support them. Own the frame.

Liberty and Justice for all

On May 5th 2008 the Los Alamitos City Council put on their agenda an item that seemed innocent enough. It was a decision to add a plaque with In God We Trust to the walls of the City Council. This is part of an effort led by Christian fundamentalist Bakersfield Councilwoman Sullivan from her non-profit, In God We Trust - America. A number of cities in the State of California have fallen to this attempt to de-secularize city government, a few have stood up for secular government and said "No."

I decided to stop it in Los Alamitos.

There is the Rule of Law, which is based on the law and common precedents. The there is the Bush Administrations view of the Rule of Law. Under the common Rule of Law which all civilized nations agree, a person may not be picked up from the streets of this country by operatives from another country and then spirited to that other country by these operatives to face prosecution in that other country.

This is no longer the operational Rule of Law.

See below the fold for all the details of the new Bush Rule of Law.   Read More »
