  • The Bush Revolution: the Remaking of America's Foreign Policy
    The Bush Revolution: The Remaking of America’s Foreign Policy Ivo H. Daalder and James M. Lindsay The Brookings Institution April 2003 George W. Bush campaigned for the presidency on the promise of a “humble” foreign policy that would avoid his predecessor’s mistake in “overcommitting our military around the world.”1 During his first seven months as president he focused his attention primarily on domestic affairs. That all changed over the succeeding twenty months. The United States waged wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. U.S. troops went to Georgia, the Philippines, and Yemen to help those governments defeat terrorist groups operating on their soil. Rather than cheering American humility, people and governments around the world denounced American arrogance. Critics complained that the motto of the United States had become oderint dum metuant—Let them hate as long as they fear. September 11 explains why foreign policy became the consuming passion of Bush’s presidency. Once commercial jetliners plowed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, it is unimaginable that foreign policy wouldn’t have become the overriding priority of any American president. Still, the terrorist attacks by themselves don’t explain why Bush chose to respond as he did. Few Americans and even fewer foreigners thought in the fall of 2001 that attacks organized by Islamic extremists seeking to restore the caliphate would culminate in a war to overthrow the secular tyrant Saddam Hussein in Iraq. Yet the path from the smoking ruins in New York City and Northern Virginia to the battle of Baghdad was not the case of a White House cynically manipulating a historic catastrophe to carry out a pre-planned agenda.

Introduction The CEI Intervenors, a group of well-funded lobbyists wants to silence the voices of citizen and ratepayer intervenors in the CHC Project because they do not feel their voices are relevant or credible. They say citizen intervenors lack basis. The Iowa Office of Consumer Advocate is afraid that when the truth gets out concerning how, poorly they defend the rights of Iowa Citizens that Iowans will become discouraged and not contact their office for help. The Applicants and the CEI say that wind energy is cheap yet can’t put a number on its’ cost. CEI opines on the fact that MS Grice objects to what she claims is Iowa’s transformation from an agricultural state into an “industrial energy generation complex” without citizen input. (Grice Pre-Hearing Brief at 3.) CEI states Ms. Grice ignored established state law that helped facilitate this. The argument in this brief will address these issues and provide documentation to support the conclusions. Linda Grice Reply Brief 1 Filed with the Iowa Utilities Board on February 17, 2020, E-22386 II. Argument The CEI wants to eliminate citizen and ratepayer voices so their argument cannot be refuted.

  • Smugglers Or Samaritans in Tucson, Arizona: Producing and Contesting Legal Truth
    smugglers or samaritans in Tucson, Arizona: producing and contesting legal truth SUSAN BIBLER COUTIN-North Adams State College In 1991, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear the appeals of a nun, a minister, two priests, and four lay people convicted of conspiring to harbor, transport, and conceal the unlawful entry of undocumented Salvadoran and Guatemalan immigrants. The court's decision removed this conflict between the U.S. government and members of the U.S. sanctuary movement (a grassroots network of congregations that had declared themselves sanctuaries for undocu- mented Central American refugees)1 from the last forum of truth in the formal legal system. The designation of convicted sanctuary workers as alien-smugglers had officially been made permanent. Despite the seeming decisiveness of this outcome, however, the very acts that constituted these sanctuary workers as criminals enabled defendants to promote competing assessments of their actions. Before they were indicted, the threat of criminal charges led sanctuary workers to develop complex legal, moral, and religious justifications for their work with Central Americans. The 1985-86 trial gave defendants the opportunity to bring these justifications before a wide audience. Following the trial, convicted sanctuary workers and their colleagues used their increased knowledge of surveillance and law to leave a record that they felt would define their actions as law-abiding rather than criminal. Paradoxically, prosecution and surveillance simultaneously criminalized and exonerated sanctuary workers. The legal conflict between the sanctuary movement and the U.S. government sheds light on how particulartechnologies of power, such as surveillance and prosecution, facilitate resistance even as they repress.

  • A Case Study of Anti-Muslim Mobilization in a Rural Great Plains
    “The Real Issue Is…”: A Case Study of Anti-Muslim Mobilization in a Rural Great Plains Community Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sarah R. Walton, B.A. Graduate Program in Environment and Natural Resources The Ohio State University 2018 Thesis Committee Professor Cathy Rakowski, Advisor Professor Jill Clark Professor Linda Lobao Copyrighted by Sarah R. Walton 2018 1 Abstract Recent studies by the Southern Poverty Law Center have noted a rise in organized anti-Muslim activism over the last three years. A number of these organized, violent mobilizations have occurred in nonmetropolitan areas. This is partially due to the fact that meatpacking facilities are increasingly located in small cities or rural areas in the Midwest or Great Plains and recruit Muslim African immigrant and refugee workers. This has resulted in a secondary migration of Muslims, particularly Somalis, to smaller meatpacking communities in the Midwest or Great Plains, creating new contexts for ethnic conflict. To date, rural hate groups, specifically these emergent anti-Muslim mobilizations, are not well understood. I seek to determine the justifications and mobilization strategies used in these anti-Muslim mobilizations. I undertake a case study of an anti-Muslim hate group in a small Great Plains community. My core research questions are: 1) How does this group justify their anti-Muslim activism?; and 2) What elements of the group's rhetoric seem to resonate with the local community? I utilize a social movements perspective to analyze transcripts from the hate group's public meetings, a public town hall meeting with a local refugee resettlement agency, and the content of the hate group's public Facebook page (454 group posts; 1,370 individual comments).

It's natural to expect more self- righteousness and less humor. In the end, The Truth is not as funny as Al Franken's last book — but it's still damn funny, and it cuts deeper. Unlike Greg Palast, Mark Crispin Miller, and other critics on the left, Al Franken doesn't believe that George Bush stole the 2004 election from John Kerry. (He does believe that Bush stole the 2000 election — and writes that since Bush has only been elected once he could legally run again in 2008!) Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them by Al Franken That's not to say that Franken thinks the 2004 election was clean. He offers an easy-to-remember phrase to summarize how Bush won: fear, smear, and queers. Fear was the fear of terrorist attack that Bush and Cheney did so much to whip up through alarmist speeches and strategically timed color-coded alerts. (Funny how we haven't been to code orange since the election — except for those of us here in New York, which is on a permanent orange alert.) Smear was largely about the well-promoted lies of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, aimed at making a war hero look like more of a wimp than the guy who couldn't be bothered to show up for his Air National Guard duty.

    4157Long_Edwards_ch09p161-181 10/24/03 1:57 PM Page 161 CHAPTER 9 George W. Bush: Policy, Politics, and Personality NNN James P. Pfiffner The School of Public Policy George Mason University During his time in office, President George W. Bush demonstrated impressive lead- ership skills.1 He was able to overcome the lack of a mandate in the 2000 election and convince Congress to pass a large tax cut. He continued to press his policy agenda when the terrorist attacks of 9-11 transformed his presidency and reoriented its focus. The war on terrorism in Afghanistan was prosecuted effectively, with the Taliban being overthrown and Al Qaeda driven out of the country. The broader success of the war was mixed, however; as of the summer of 2003 Osama Bin Laden was not captured, the terrorist threat of Al Qaeda was not eliminated, and Afghan- istan remained unstable. In an impressive display of political leadership in 2002 President Bush was able to overcome the skepticism of the professional military in the United States, the op- position of much of the world, and the lack of support from the UN Security Council and take the United States to war with Iraq in order to depose Saddam Hussein. The war ended within three weeks, though the attempt to install a legitimate successor government was to take much longer. Over this period, President Bush has exhibited several patterns of behavior that provide some insight into his policy choices. He has shown a preference for moral certainty over strategic calculation; a tendency for vis- ceral reaction rather than reflection; a preference for clarity rather than complexity; a bias toward action rather than deliberation; and a preference for the personal over the structural or procedural.2 Bush exuded confidence and moral certainty and ex- hibited no evidence of self doubt or ambivalence about major decisions.

  • “The Secret Heart of America”
    43 “The Secret Heart of America” Lyndon Baines Johnson’s Bold Synthesis of American Thought Daniel T. Carrigg and James A. Morone Rarely . does an issue lay bare the secret heart of America itself. Rarely are we met with a challenge . to the values and the purposes and the meaning of our beloved nation. The is- sue of equal rights for American Negroes is such an issue. And should we defeat every enemy, and should we double our wealth and conquer the stars, and still be unequal to this issue, then we will have failed as a people and as a nation.1 November 26, 1963, was raw and wet in Washington, D.C. Just four days earlier an assassin’s bullet had thrust Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973) into the presidency. Now, he sat with advisors in the dining room of his sprawling ten-bedroom estate in northwest Washington and pondered just what he aimed to achieve. The next day, he would address a joint session of Congress and a national television audience—a kind of inaugural address. His advisors agreed on one thing: Stay clear of civil rights. Bringing it up would offend the Southern Democrats and, besides, John F. Kennedy’s Civil Rights Bill was a lost cause.2 President Johnson (LBJ) had other ideas. He was already famous for coming on like a tidal wave, as Vice President Hubert Humphrey later put it, and now he interrupted the talk of trimming in his booming Texas way: “Well, what the hell’s the presidency for?”3 From those first days, LBJ decided to make the explosive matters of race and civil rights central to his domestic policy agenda.

  • Credibility Determinations at the Illinois Torture Inquiry and Relief Commission
    CHANBONPIN.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 4/30/2014 9:37 AM Truth Stories: Credibility Determinations at the Illinois Torture Inquiry and Relief Commission Kim D. Chanbonpin* This is the first scholarly Article to investigate the inner workings of the Illinois Torture Inquiry and Relief Commission (“TIRC”). The TIRC was established by statute in 2009 to provide legal redress for victims of police torture. Prisoners who claim that their convictions were based on confessions coerced by police torture can utilize the procedures available at the TIRC to obtain judicial review of their cases. For those who have exhausted all appeals and post-conviction remedies, the TIRC represents the tantalizing promise of justice long denied. To be eligible for relief, however, the claimant must first meet the TIRC’s strict four-element test for credibility. This Article argues that through its over-reliance on these credibility standards, the TIRC effectively inscribes and reproduces a dominant narrative of police torture, one that promotes a “bad apples” myth and ignores the contributing factors of broader-scale forces such as racism and inadequate police accountability mechanisms. By accepting certain claims of torture as credible and rejecting others, the TIRC engages in the construction of a socio-legal truth about Chicago’s police torture crisis. This Article explores the truth-making function of the TIRC, examining its adjudicatory processes under the framework of what Andrew Woolford and R.S. Ratner call “the informal-formal justice complex.” The TIRC is an informal justice practice in that it provides a forum for the adjudication of police torture claims in a space created outside the formal legal system.
