Horrors: The prosecution plays the dying recordings of victims of 9/11 in the Moussaoui sentencing case. The judge warns they might be overly prejudicial. Ya think...?
Critics: Gallup finds that the more Americans know about the president's role in the CIA leak case, the more they don't like it...
Overall, 63% of Americans believe Bush did something either illegal (21%) or unethical (42%), while 28% say he did nothing wrong. While many more Democrats are critical, 3 in 10 Republicans also find that Bush did something illegal or unethical.
The more closely people are following the issue, the more likely they are to say he did something illegal rather than merely unethical.
The poll, conducted April 7-9, 2006, shows that just 25% of Americans are following the matter "very" closely, while another 39% are following the issue "somewhat" closely. Another 36% are not following the issue closely at all.
Immigration nation: Some facts on Latinos and the electorate. Short version: the GOP is kidding itself if it thinks legalizing Mexican immigrants is the key to its long term electoral issues. Not every immigration marcher is a Latino activist or an American flag defender. Herewith, note the coming of the Crispus Attucks Brigade...! And Gallup finds an America divided over whether to criminalize ... illegal ... migrants (isn't that redundant?)
Nobody likes Kathy, volume three: Katherine Harris says the righties who want her to quit the race simply haven't "caught her vision" yet...
Random takes: Alas, a Blog catalogues the nastiness over those Duke DNA results... FDL asks whether Joementum will become an independant force ... while guest blogger Matt O. of The Great Society digs around in the Little Green Footballers' smelly, dirty laundry...
Last but not least, we're link-running a series on Afghanistan by guest blogger Willie Buck Merle, whose first post is a must-read (cross posted at The War Years)
