Atty Genrl Ashcroft SUED!

BOISE, Idaho - A federal appeals court delivered a stinging rebuke Friday to the Bush administration’s post-Sept. 11 detention policies, ruling that former Attorney General John Aschcroft can be held liable for people who were wrongfully detained as material witnesses after 9/11.

This particular appeal was brought by a Muslim man, detained for two weeks following 9/11. But it could have been any of us depending on the circumstances one might find himself in at the time. I wouldn't be surprised if additional law suits are filed. With Hawaii's large population of Japanese the interments during WW2 are never forgotten here. Then and now, a sad commentary on an over reacting Government.
