Good Morning Mayor Jones,
I am calling to share my concerns around the response to the recent actions of Library Director Michele Reutty. I am not a constituent of yours, but I am sure that you now realize that this case has generated International attention for the Borough of Hasbrouck Heights.
I am calling to support emphatically the protection of the privacy of library patrons and the guarding of their records from unnecessary review by law enforcement authorities. This is exactly the protection that was intended by the Fourth Amendment to the United Sates Constitution.
The securing of a warrant by police officers strengthens their case in the prosecution of crimes and protects against sloppy investigative work. Primarily, however, it protects the rights of innocent people, whose records were also reviewed during this investigation.
It is my sincere hope that after careful consideration, aided if necessary by public outcry, Your Honor and the other members of the Borough of Hasbrouck Heights Council will come to understand the wisdom of protecting these rights.
Thank you, Mr. Mayor, for your time.
This is too good to pass up. Remember when Bill Clinton used to go around saying that he was so in touch with the needs of the black community that he was "the first black president?' Well, Kerry proved that he was no Bill Clinton when he stuck his foot in his mouth and broke it off last week. Here's what happened.
A large contributor to the GOP from New Mexico was just granted restricted use for drilling rights in Otero Mesa, New Mexico.
The questions were normal, "How many DVDs have you bought within the last 3 months?", "Will you purchase new release DVDs within the next 3 months?" and so forth.
These quotes are from the random thoughts section of Neil Boortz. I just love this guy. Even though he is a Libertarian, he hits the head of the ball everytime.

The moron of the day goes to the protestors trying to sue the Army for use of "noise tactics" and "psychological operation" during the annual protest of the School of the Americas.
Just what are these "psychological operations"? The Army played a tape of "God Bless America" and the "Army Song"
The protestors blame the school for human rights violations in Latin America (although the school moved from Panama 14 years ago).
Basic is a high level languish. APL is a high level anguish.
