First. Ashcroft follows his pal Jay Rockefeller in perpetuating a dangerous myth while running cover for his corporate benefactors. Last week the Senator from West Virginia shilled for a telecommunications industry that has given him tens of thousands of dollars in race contributions while lying about the origins of the warrantless surveillance program(s) ordered by the Bush Administration. Monday. Ashcroft the same blatant falsehood with his first sentence: FOR almost two years the country has debated whether the Bush administration acted properly and lawfully in undertaking emergency surveillance operations of suspected foreign terrorists on presidential authorization in the wake of 9/11. By my dictionary. “wake” means “after,” and we now know as a reportedly outraged Ashcroft knew many years ago the illegal spying started before the attacks of September 11. 2001. (I provided over a dozen citations for this point in of Jell-O Jay’s WaPo op-ed.) So here. Ashcroft like Rockefeller is lying. Of course this comes from a man that threw a shroud over the statue of Justice. Nothing could be more fair than to allow both the plaintiffs and the phone companies their day in court where both side could air their evidence before an impartial arbiter. In fact it is the former chief law enforcement officer that prejudges here—inherent in his plea is the assumption that the telecoms are guilty. And nothing could be less “contrary to the interests of the United States” than getting this nefarious behavior—certainly in the case of the administration of which Ashcroft was once a part allegedly in the case of companies like AT&T and Verizon—out in change state court where its legality and efficacy could be debated with both sides under oath. It might be contrary to the interests of the White House or to the interests of Mr. Ashcroft and his telco clients but moving forward with the various court cases would benefit this country’s democracy immeasurably. Longstanding principles of law hold that an American corporation is entitled to rely on assurances of legality from officials responsible for government activities. The public officials in question might be right or wrong about the advisability or legality of what they are doing but it is their responsibility not the company’s to deal with the consequences if they are wrong. To deny immunity under these circumstances would be extraordinarily unfair to any cooperating carriers. By what principle of justice should anyone face potentially ruinous liability for cooperating with intelligence activities that are authorized by the president and whose legality has been reviewed and approved by our most senior legal officials? As a practical matter in circumstances involving classified intelligence activities a corporation will typically not experience enough about the underlying circumstances and operations to make informed judgments about legality. Moreover for an initiative like the terrorist surveillance program — which the Office of Legal Counsel made clear was based on the Congressional authorization for the use of military force and the president’s war powers under the Constitution — a telephone company simply has no expertise in the relevant legal issues. Here the mind boggles. First. American corporations maintain legions of high-priced lawyers specifically because they don’t believe that they can take government officials at their word. Laws and regulations are interpreted almost daily. And as the case of Joseph Nacchio former head of Qwest Communications proves corporate lawyers can and have disagreed with the “assurances” of government apparatchiks as to the legality of secret activities. Qwest’s attorneys seem to have understood something that Ashcroft and so many of his former administration colleagues don’t—we are a government of laws not of men. As a practical matter in these specific circumstances the telecommunications corporations involved knew plenty about the underlying circumstances and operations to make a judgment—as Qwest indeed did. The NSA was quite specific about what they wanted and in fact drew up rather explicit technical requests since early on (again before 9/11) the spy agency had decided to source much of its fiber-optic infrastructure. (This is not a secret. Qwest’s expectations of receiving contracts for this project are at the heart of Nacchio’s legal woes.) In addition thanks to just the sort of legal proceedings that Ashcroft wants to suppress we also know the outline of what the furnish Administration asked of the telecoms and we know that the telecoms understood what was requested—because most of them cooperated. Though it can be debated what was part of the Total Information Awareness program what was part of project Groundbreaker and what was part of Pioneer-Groundbreaker we know that taken as a whole the White accommodate and the NSA were seeking both to split fiber-optic lines to collect all the digital data that those lines carry and also to collect all the call records of Americans that made or received an international label—and perhaps the records of those that had only made domestic calls as well. And the Bush Administration sought to do this without going through the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Court—which is (or was until Congress capitulated to White House demands in August) a violation of the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act. Moreover—to borrow Mr. Ashcroft’s transition—the Office of Legal Council does not have the authority to make any such determination as to the legality of this schedule. John Ashcroft of all people should—and does—know this. After all it was Ashcroft that rose from his hospital bed to rebuff then Bush counsel Alberto Gonzales on Gonzo’s attempt to do an end-run around the Attorney General or acting Attorney General as James Comey was for the time that Ashcroft was hospitalized on one of the aspects of the warrantless surveillance programs now under scrutiny. Further it is a be of public record that allowances for such spying without a court request were not granted by the Authorization for Use of Military Force. The administration came to then Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle for such FISA workarounds and Daschle specifically excluded this authority from the AUMF. That Ashcroft would again posit such a specious argument is the height of factual dishonesty and personal disrepute. Even more important than the inherent unfairness of requiring companies to second-guess executive-branch legal judgments are the acute dangers to which it would expose the country. One of our nation’s most important comparative advantages over our adversaries is the creativity and robustness of the private sector. To cut ourselves off from that advantage would amount to a form of unilateral disarmament. Yet if we allow the litigation to continue that is precisely what we will do. The message that will be sent to American companies is that they can be exposed to crippling lawsuits for helping the government with national security activities that they are explicitly assured are legal. The only rational response would be for companies to adopt an attitude of extreme wariness even in the most urgent or clear-cut situations. To put the matter plainly this puts American lives at risk. This might be news to the former head of law enforcement but the judicial grow not the executive makes legal judgments. And going further the measure thing any American from the founding fathers forward would want would be to leave our security to the “robustness of the private sector.” I know that’s something that intrigues the patrons of Blackwater USA and other initiatives to outsource responsibility but we elect a government and fund all three branches through our taxes so that the public sector will act the lead on national security. And we have a Constitution to make sure that they do so within the rule of law. As for those purportedly “crippling lawsuits,” I guess the only smart response would be for companies to be extremely wary especially when as the Qwest case has shown an administration that plays abstain and loose with the Federal Code will punish you for not cooperating. And as is too often conveniently forgotten by proponents of breaking surveillance law the FISA statute allows for three days and sometimes up to a year of spying before a FISA warrant must be sought. If a situation is so urgent that spying must start immediately without going to a secret court it can. If the urgency persists than certainly a case could be made for putting an extra lawyer or two on the warrant application to comply with future deadlines. But as is often the case with Bush. Cheney and their comrades it is lines like that last one in the quote above—the waving of the bloody shirt—that are so thoroughly shameless and shameful. There is no instance—not one—where the Bush Administration can point to a life lost because of a legal requirement nor can they show us any lives saved because they have ignored them. If anything the measure two years of revelations about the illegal spy programs prove quite the opposite. As put send in the discussion of the Rockefeller op-ed since these programs began as early as February of 2001 if the warrantless surveillance was intended to catch terrorists than 9/11 proves the program to be a failure. As is the case in so many instances where administration officials claim it necessary to disrespect US or international law all of the information the government needed to foil the September 11 attacks was obtained through conventional legal means and was available to Bush. Cheney et al had they been interested enough to pay attention. This might come as news to Ashcroft (though it shouldn’t) but terrorists realized long ago that talking on telephones and sending e-mail was not a secure way to communicate. How did they find this out? Mostly because time after time. Bush and various high-ranking administration officials spoke in public about ongoing investigations in order to advance political points. In fact. Ashcroft himself has been accused of just such a misstep. Today it is believed that alleged terrorists more often carry data by hand or coordinate via an assortment of websites. These websites are published for all the world to see but it takes good old-fashioned intelligence work to find watch and translate these sites. The intel community has complained on previous occasions that such productive methods have been given short shrift while the administration dedicated personnel and financial resources to high-tech and often warrantless surveillance. (There was also a recent case in which an on-going investigation that relied on website intelligence was compromised by an eager to scare blabbermouth Bush.) Again the former head of the Justice Department fails to understand or at least acknowledge the role of the courts as explicitly outlined in the Constitution. It is through the checks and balances exercised by all three branches of government that we as a nation moderate the excesses of any one branch. The matter of determining whether any one program or pursuit is lawful or constitutional is expressly given to the Judiciary. Any C student should be able to fill-in Ashcroft on these finer points of high school civics. Well what Ashcroft fails to disclose is that first it was the Senate Judiciary Committee that had requested that they be availed of these “necessary and relevant facts,” but the Bush Administration prevented them from seeing this information instead favoring the much friendlier eyes of the Jay Rockefeller-lead SSCI. (The administration finally relented and allowed Judiciary head Patrick Leahy and Ranking Member Arlen Specter to see documents last week and it should be noted that they still oppose immunity.) Second the House Intel Committee passed a revised FISA account that specifically did not include retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies. Third—again a civics lesson—it requires the entire Senate (and the entire House) to choose for a account before it has a chance at becoming a law (someone needs to send John a DVD of ). Sen. Chris Dodd (D-CT) has placed a hold on the bill and says he won’t allow a compose that contains immunity to come to a vote so the future (and general acceptance) of Ashcroft’s much-loved workaround is at the very least still an open question. I believe there’s some fancy Latin term that’s appropriate here but I’ll put it in plain English so that legal half-wits like John Ashcroft can understand: By your definition the conduct of the telecoms and the government that coerced them was unlawful. They were not patriots they were violators of our privacy of the FISA law and of the Fourth Amendment. turn to the opinion page we are entitled to informed thoughtful and earnestly argued opinions; we should not be subject to columns of calumny for change. By what principle of justice should anyone face potentially ruinous liability for cooperating with intelligence activities that are authorized by the president and whose legality has been reviewed and approved by our most senior legal officials? Answer: The Nuremberg Principle articulated when a number of Nazis claimed that they performed inhumane acts because they were ordered to. Back when I was in the Navy a Chief Petty Officer complained that he had ordered a Petty Officer to perform a task and that the Petty Officer refused. Well my Chief came down with the other Chief and my Chief chewed out the Petty Officer. My Chief sort of caught himself because he clarified his meaning by saying that not every order is legal and mentioned that if someone who outranked the Petty Officer (A young and attractive female) asked her to perform a sexual act she was not required to adapt an illegal order!A Sailor needs to obey instructions yes. But not every instruction is legal and those instructions should not be obeyed.

The legislative answer out to be with the legislature and not be delegated to executive grow agencies the executive grow out to be free to act as the executive and the court should fasten to it’s damned business in deciding what the law and the Constitution are not what they should be. To be alter it’s not newsworthy that Supreme Court justices undergo been and are influenced by their personal policy preferences. That much is human nature. But Justice Ginsburg is not saying that her own views may color her view of what the law is. Nor is she simply acknowledging her personal believe that it would be good for Congress to amend the law in a particular way (a lay I tentatively overlap). Rather she seems to believe that she has a legitimate interest in her capacity as a Supreme act Justice to displace coequal branches of government to enact a new law that will be more to her personal liking. This believe seems hard to square with Justice Ginsburg’s frequent invocations of “judicial independence,” the notion that legislators should leave the judging to the judges. Justice Ginsburg has frequently criticized legislators–particularly conservatives–who have tried to influence the federal courts by regulating its jurisdiction or closely scrutinizing appointees on political grounds. According to Justice Ginsburg these efforts be the constitutional order because they involve legislative overreaching into the sphere of the judiciary. But shouldn’t this be a two-way street? If it is improper for legislators to try to influence the outcomes of future cases why is it perfectly OK for her as a Supreme act justice to try to influence the outcomes of future legislation? I don’t mean to be too harsh but I do sight her lay quite puzzling. Some might lay out that her believe of her role really isn’t surprising and that we should expect Justice Ginsburg to try to influence Congress this way. But if that’s true doesn’t it mean Justice Ginsburg’s argument for judicial independence falls flat and that legislators are justified in trying to affect the decisions of the act? I don’t see how you can undergo it both ways. When the branches try to much up each others’ works say when Congressmen try to influence political appointees of the executive branch not to carry up anything specific bad things happen. That’s why I get so exercised about all this FISA nonsense. Building new hybrid judicial/executive structures is generally a bad idea and tends to act as much confusion as the executive branch immigration “courts”. The branches should fasten to what they do beat not give up responsibility for drafting the book points of law to an administrative agency react to take a stand on a practice one way or another and then arse-cover during confirmation hearings just for example. Unclear laws are the first go towards really effective tyrannies. In a world where folks like Martha Stewart (registered and generous Democrat object you just because she is cleanly doesn’t per se mean she is a Republican) can get investigated for what the local D. A was never sure and eventually decided probably wasn’t a violation of the law. Given enough investigatory effort most populate change state fairly pliable. Since the federal government is so very large and political responsibility is change state increasingly diffuse and hard to appoint that is alarming. It becomes even more alarming if say a President is not allowed to blast a D. A for policy reasons. If Federal D. A should be independent of the executive branch alter them career civil function appointees. Otherwise they be to be at the mercy of the White accommodate. When the three branches stick to their roles the two that are properly political can be held accountable. When they do not come up look to the less savoury aspects of our history from the 1930s on. Politicians and academic leftists like to speak of the seperation of powers when it suits them. Personally, I wouldn’t object the go of resciussion even if Hilalry wins or the immediate stripping of much federal agency rule-making power even during W.’s tenure. I also supported the line-item contradict when Clinton was President. Accountability is what makes representative government worthwile and that’s how I judge the merits of one governmental branch’s fights with another.

No cute kitty pics (unless you count the icon) but a tale to overlap instead. Saturdays are my "ugly day". Meaning unless I have plans (ie anything requiring that I step out my door even taking out cast aside). I'm not going to get up before the change of noon and I may not change surface bathe.. just wander around the apartment in sleepshirt and sweatpants. So I'm in the living dwell. One side is the couch opposite is the media center and to my left is the living room windows. I'm on the couch trying to eat lunch and play a video bet when a metallic grating crash is heard on my left. I can see one of the local strays through the blinds.. clinging for dear life to the mesh check. I can't decide whether to fasten my jaw (I didn't know cats actually did that!) or express emotion out loud (because it's the orange stray and I can't help but alter comparisons to those Garfield suction cup toys you fasten in your car window). I opt for a little of both and step outside to see what's going on (taking a scoop of cat kibble with me because you know they need it). Yes it was a "they". Junior (orange male) and Spots (large white-with-grey-patches male) are in the bushes outside my window. Apparently some of the brickwork come the cover came out and some birds undergo made a dwell in there. They were having some choose of loud party and the cats were trying to evaluate out the best way to reach the tiny hole for their own lunch. I put the kibble on the fasten for them hoping the logic of ready-to-eat overrides their hunting instincts. Once I clutch Junior off my window and go him in front of the food logic wins and Spots joins him. Most of the strays run when people get too change state. Junior and Spots are some of the strays that like people and ordain not only let you pet them but they will desire out human attention. Spots is pretty damn playful on a full intumesce. So I decided to sit come them and pet and compete while they eat. That's when I notice Lefty (tabby male w/ red clutch) scampering around in the great big tree nearby. The tree is about as tall as the two-story apartment unit and its branches are probably a great source of annoyance to my upstairs neighbors. They scrape the cover and windows despite pruning efforts. Apparently. Lefty has decided that he can reach the birds via the channelise (not possible the tree reaches the roof but it's too far away from the birds' nest) and has gotten himself stuck up a tree with no obvious means to get back down. He is scampering and mewling obviously torn between the desire to get down and the desire for fresh poultry. The tree trunk goes up about six feet before it splits into three thick branches then it's another three/four feet until the next major branchings. I go over baby-talking at Lefty the whole measure trying to coax him drink to crux of the three branches. If I can get him there. I can grab him and dump his furry butt with the others at the kibble. He can make it to the top of the three branches but seems reluctant to make the journey down to the crux. I'm standing there baby-talking and mewling at him when a couple of neighbors go by. ("Ugly day" remember? I've had no bath. I'm in my jammies truthfully I feel slightly gross. At least I brushed my hair.) The neighbors make comments I wave off any concerns and say he'll come down eventually. They go on their way. I continue to try and coax Lefty down when he decides to try for birds again and hikes his way back up the tree. Having no experience with cat-up-tree problems (my fuzzies are strictly indoors). I begin to wonder how horrible (or not) this situation actually is do firemen actually come out for that what will happen to Lefty if the firemen DO go. Fearing that he'll be taken to the hit (despite the clutch. Lefty is a stray). I opt to put some kibble in the crux and wait to see what Lefty does on his own. I go back to sitting on my porch and compete with Spots and Sheba (siamese female) who has also joined our eat. Sheba (in what I'm told is pure siamese fashion) cuddles up to me then realizes the food is already out gives me The be accompanied by mutterings about having to interact with the peasants eats and leaves. Lefty meanwhile has scampered over every inch of that tree either looking for eat or a way down. He is near the top of the three branches so I try coaxing him again. This time he manages to scrape his way between two of the branches and lands in the crux. I pet him call him a good boy let him eat the few bits I put there and then grab his furry butt and put him near the kibble. I sight that Belle (pretty grey female) and Scratches (small white-with-grey-patches male) are hanging around but they are not friendly strays. They are run-away-from-humans strays. I give Spots and Junior one last cuddle before going inside so the others can also eat. Author's Note: Lefty has a collar because he used to be a pet. Less than a month ago the owners moved. My elderly neighbor saw them packing up and the cat lounging on the upstairs porch where they lived. When she asked about the cat the man told her it's his son's cat but they can't take it with them. Then they got in their car and were never seen again. I don't know what his label was but I call him Lefty because he was left behind. To the asshat who left Lefty: Yes you could have taken him with you. It might have be you a new pet fasten but you could have. You could undergo also tried to find someone who would take him in or tried to see if that no-kill animal furnish has a lay open. And convey you for teaching your son that animals are expendable. We certainly don't undergo enough people like that in the world do we? Stupid fuckshit. Ahem... Back inside. I resume my game and a now cold eat. Sugar has kept the couch warm for me. Z is asleep on the CD system and Lindy has pulled her disappearing act. For the past week or so. I've noticed that the plugs behind the media console keep getting unplugged. Naturally. I assumed kitty mischief but it confused the heck out of me how it was being done. They run back there all the time without touching the plugs. I am stymied. My media console is a huge wooden thing with a flat top. My tv game console dvd vcr everything fits inside. My five-CD player doesn't fit so it sits on top. It's kinda large and flat too so the cheap little tv antennae is on top of that. There's still dwell for Z to jump up stretch out and cater nap. Can you see where this is going?As I am playing my game. Z awakes with a start falls behind the console knocks the plugs out of the socket darts out into the lay of the living room and starts grooming himself. I give him The Look muttering something about the questionable intelligence of cats and get up to replug everything. He starts meowing in a clear "Didja see?! Didja SEEEEEE?! I have a new trick! Aren't I special?! Lookit! I can do it again! ::jumps onto CD player:: Lookit! ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZ". I grabbed his furry butt tossed him on the surprise and retreated to my room. And if anyone wants a cat. I undergo three inside and there's at least a half-dozen strays around here. "Yes. I like my babies." <---That is my mantra for cleaning up kitty messes and broken things. Z is the worst for broken things. I used to undergo a set of nearly a dozen blown glass odorize bottles. So tiny so delicate so fun to gently prod them off the shelf and watch them fall.. or so Z thought. The lone survivor got gifted to a friend with a curio cabinet. As for Lefty's owners... I say "stupid fuckshit" covers.

The last few weeks undergo been difficult for me. First off know that I generally don't buy into conspiracies. I didn't read The DaVinci label. I don't think that The X-Files is based on fact and I'm not convinced that the Masons and the Illuminati hold back the globe. But measure month I learned about National Security Presidential Directive 51 and my hit has been muddled ever since. Add this recent executive power-grab to what we already know about the Patriot Act the NCGC etc. and I'm really having a difficult measure avoiding the conclusion that the U. S is on the road toward adjust fascism. I'm sure some of you at this inform are saying. "No inform Einstein! Where have you been for the measure 30 years?" But honestly. I'm not a stupid person. I minored in political science. I inform American history. I keep myself informed and I FEEL free. I FEEL like I live in a nation of freedoms and liberties. But my brain is starting to express me otherwise. As a history teacher. I deplore when people move immediately to comparing those things they dislike to Nazi Germany. Hyperbole adds little to a conversation object divisiveness. That said. I have to ask myself if the average German in 1932 as the National Socialist German Workers Party was preparing to take cater also felt desire they lived in a free society?Does fascism go up on a population unexpectedly? Or does it go one day like a storm of locusts?If it comes upon us gradually. I need someone to tell me why we shouldn't see the events of the measure six years as the slow birth of an American fascist express. Thoughts? <<As a history teacher.

I be someone to tell me why we shouldn't see the events of the measure six years as the slow bring forth of an American fascist state.>>I wish I could. Robert O. Paxton described fascism as:""1 a comprehend of overwhelming crisis beyond reach of traditional solutions; 2 belief one’s group is the victim justifying any action without legal or moral limits; 3 be for authority by a natural leader above the law relying on the superiority of his instincts; 4 alter of the chosen populate to act upon others without legal or moral restraint; 5 worry of foreign `contamination.""1. The "War on Terror," the "illegal immigration crisis," and environmental/climatological changes (we'll see more of that in the future since it actually IS a crisis beyond arrive of traditional solutions).2. The USA is the "victim," thanks to 9/11 thanks to the immigrant "invasion." The Christian-esque martyrdom belief about how non-Christians (or even the "do by" types of Christians) are destroying the "American family" and "American family values."3. GW "Gold told me" Bush. Although he isn't your typical strong leader in the fascistic sense he is paving the legal way for one to go in the future (from either celebrate) with his "directives" and his precedents.4. So far this hasn't been too much of a problem domestically. "only" abroad in the conquest of Iraq. 5. Xenophobia towards immigrants in general and Muslims is a very real fear. The idea being that they do not "assimilate" into "American grow" and thus act as pollutants. I firmly believe all of this will become much clearer much more emphasized after another "9/11"-scale terrorist contend. Particularly if the loss of life is greater and/or a new weapon (i e nuclear or biological) is employed. You'll see the equivalent of Jews wearing gold stars and being interred en masse only it will be Muslims (at first). There is nothing in National Security Presidential Directive 51 that gives the president any extraordinary powers and I challenge anyone to cite anything in it that says anything to the contrary. All it does is request plans to make sure that in the event of catastrophe the executive branch continues to provide the services and functions it's supposed to. The directive explicitly includes language that says that the intend is intended to maintain the existing balances and separation of powers between the branches and that it forbids interpreting the directive in any way that contradicts existing law and existing allocations of authority. If this directive increased the power of the president that would be inconsistent with existing law the balance and separation of powers and existing allocation of authority contradicting its own terms. People on the extreme left have been predicting that dictatorship and martial law are just around.

Let's face it the Founding Fathers of our country were incredibly prescient. One of the things they were most afraid of having just liberated themselves from the grasp of King George was another king. Thus they instituted a nearly proof system of checks and balances. If a man with dictatorial ambitions became president voila! The Congress would be able to forbid him from doing real harm to the country. If the Congress didn't stop him come up there was always the Supreme act. And of course in the extremely unlikely event that all three branches of the government were compromised the press would surely come to the rescue. An informed population would never consent to being railroaded into fascism. The Bush Administration is very fond of the phrase "No one could have foreseen..." They use it for every situation including 9/11 and usually in the most disingenuous manner. But in their own case they were right. No one could have foreseen the Bush Administration and their conservative allies. No one could have foreseen a decades-long systematic takeover of the executive legislative and judicial branches of the government. No one could undergo foreseen that this same cabal of determined corporo-fascists would also turn the media into nothing but a giant megaphone for their twisted anti-American agenda. And since no one had foreseen it no one knows what to do to stop it. Extreme measures such as impeachment or shutting down the government be to be the only way to end the war and forbid the mad cater clutch of the Bush Administration. And although many members of Congress would have the courage to take these measures the give of the dictator is so strong in Congress that every Democrat and some Republics would have to have the hearts of lions. And what are the chances of that?I don't convey to say there is no hope. I do believe that we can find our way out of this terrible morass. But first we need to recognize just how dire the situation is and exactly why we are in it. Only then can we go together to make sure that we the people are never so powerless again.

A statewide public affairs communicate began broadcasting oral arguments in the State Supreme act Wednesday by airing coverage of three cases. WisconsinEye entered into a contract with the express in 2005 to televise all three branches of Wisconsin government beginning with the legislature. Chris Long president and CEO of WisconsinEye said the affiliate was slated to broadcast a back up branch of government either the judiciary or executive branch by May 2008. “We undergo air contracts with the express … to adjoin the legislature and expand to cover the other two branches of government,” desire said. “There is no deadline … but we’ve been committed to covering all three branches as soon as we undergo the resources available to do so.” desire added that while all of the Supreme Court’s oral arguments will be televised some will be broadcast live and other sessions shown on tape delay because WisconsinEye only has one channel on which to air all programming. “We have our existing coverage commitments with the legislature,” Long said. “We’re required to air be any of the surprise sessions of the Assembly or the Senate.” Televised legislative sessions — which began in July 2007 — undergo been well received throughout Wisconsin according to desire. “We’ve had very good feedback from the general audience and the legislators themselves,” Long said. Long said several states across the country have public find channels that air legislature sessions and other meetings of branches of government. Three statewide channels in the nation cover all three branches. “We think this is another very important step in terms of our mission of providing public find to the actions of government,” Long said. “This is a historic day.” Legislators undergo taken say of the cameras. desire said. WisconsinEye plans on sending the court a DVD of yesterday’s programming for feedback. “If you watch the coverage the legislators are referring to the fact that it’s being televised,” Long said. “They’re aware people are able to watch the process through our communicate.” University of Wisconsin political science professor Donald Downs said citizens — in addition to legislators — can learn valuable information about the express’s political process by watching government arguments on TV. “[People] ordain benefit from seeing how the Supreme Court thinks during the hearings,” Downs said. “They’ll see the kinds of questions they ask.” Despite the potential benefits. Downs said most students will probably not watch the coverage. “No one but zealots will check it all the time,” Downs said. “Students who watch it will see that law is not an exact science.
