Supreme Court to tackle two more cases

TChris at TalkLeft has two good posts about cases that the Supreme Court agreed to hear today.
  1. Religion v. Drug Laws - about Hoasca Tea (used in ceremonies of the O Centro Espirita Beneficients Uniao Do Vegetal church). It has some impact on the Controlled Substances Act. Note: SCOTUS Blog has some excellent background on the Hoasca Tea case.
  2. Supreme Court Tackles Consent to Search Issue. If you refuse consent to search your apartment, but your roommate agrees?

Interview questions we should hear more often...

In today's get underground reporter Jake McGee asked Ralph Nader:
Do you think John Walters [ONDCP "Drug Czar"] is insane?

Now personally, I think the answer is "No. Walters knows what he's doing."

However, I think the question is particularly good in that it's polite. It's a nice thing to do -- asking if insanity might be an explanation for his actions -- rather than immediately jumping to the only other possibility: that he's a corrupt liar and a destructive force in American life who is only interested in furthering a special interest polital agenda, even at the expense of the lives of some of the most vulnerable in our society.

Yes, it's a polite question.

There's a war going on. It destroys lives and families, spawns violence, suspends civil liberties, tramples on the infirm, locks up millions of peaceful citizens, costs billions, and subjugates reason with fear. This blog looks at the front lines of the drug war, with news, analysis, and the occasional rant.
