    • Mich. ruling allows K-9 units to sniff without warrant

      Posted by okami

      GENESEE COUNTY, Mich. - Police - or at least K-9 units - now can go sniffing around outside your house even without a warrant.

      A recent court ruling said police don't need a search warrant to take drug-sniffing dogs to the front door of homes, as long as they have a tip there are illegal drugs there.

    "Jesse Helms was the kindest, most infuriating, politest, most aggravating and nicest politician I had to deal with in the United States Senate," former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said in a 2001 interview.  huh..

    Great story.  I blog about food issues, and deal with this sort of "information filtering" all the time.    This story was the basis of my 4th of July post.

    Jeff, Jeff, Jeff,

    First of all have you ever been to Madrid or London. Al Qaida will kill any Jew, Christian or Hindu they run across and then reload.  A border is not a good defense system for terrorism.  Second, the war and the value of the dollar have weakened us. It is just peculiar that it wasn’t Jimmy Carter who did it to us this time. Third of all the US owns the Stanley Cup (ever been to Detroit ?).  Forth where is Robert Rubin when we need him most !

    I’m not sure how’d they feel about adding themselves to the top Al Qaida target list, taking on our ginormous deficit and having to wipe the floor with us on Friday nights in hockey.

    One thing I don’t understand is if America is such a great country – why our currency has lost 1/3 of its value in the past 7 years against the Canadian dollar? Anyone? Anyone? My American buck used to be worth $1.55 CDN and now it’s barely even (on a good day).

    You’re entitled to your own opinion (if you’re civil) but not your own facts.
