A federal advisory panel headed by Jim Gilmore (the Gilmore Commission), former Republican Party chairman and Governor of Virginia, issued a report early this morning [December 16] that sharply criticized the Administration's anti-terror policies. The Gilmore Commission cautioned that "important civil liberties issues must be considered when evaluating measures for combating terrorism." When considering anti-terrorism policies the government must "look ahead at the unintended consequences of politics in the quiet of day instead of the crisis of the moment." Strategic planning is necessary to combat terrorism but, according to the Gilmore Commission, "there is probably nothing more strategic that our nation must do than ensure our civil liberties." article
This article will be linked on a new page I've added to my website (Courts and Commissions Blocking Civil Liberties Attacks) to try to keep track of official legal rebuffs to the BushKKKroft fascist march.
