Frontline Season Opener: "Cheney's Law" |
|
The 26th-season opener examines how, in the aftermath of 9/11, Vice President Dick Cheney and others in the Bush administration have pushed to expand the power of the presidency. Included: comments from former assistant attorney general Jack L. Goldsmith and former Justice Department attorney Marty Lederman.
Sounds like some television worth watching. 8pm CST on PBS in WI

5. Frontline does shows which are good |
|
for getting a discussion going with someone who thinks differently. They did an even handed comparison of the lives of Kerry and Bush in 2004, which was run several times in the weeks before the election. I actually learned a lot of details about Kerry's military record by watching it, and when I was doing doors and ran into people who were "Swift boat" voters, I had that to draw on.
So if you have relatives who don't think the presidential powers have been expanded to the point of ridiculousness....give 'em a call and Thanksgiving dinner will be interesting. }(
