What Happened to the Court Reporter?
by Roger Shuler of Legal Schnauzer
....All of which raises this question: Who was Jimmy Dickens and how
did he die?
From doing some research on the Web, I could find out very little
about Mr. Dickens, who was 59 at the time of his death.
[According to] an obituary from the August 26, 2007, issue of the
Montgomery Advertiser. Mr. Dickens died on August 24. No indication
as to cause of death. Certainly sounds like he was a fine fellow--an
Air Force veteran, a Methodist, a husband, a father to three sons, a
grandfather to six. One of his sons evidently is a physician.

Take a Stand Against Injustice Today
by Scott Horton
....*Most people think that tales of martyrdom ended some hazy time
in the Middle Ages. But that’s not true. They continued to periods still
within the memory of those with us today. And they should provide us
with some inspiration. Moltke was moved by a sense of justice. It is
impossible to see what is happening in our name and be silent, and
refrain from action, he wrote. And he reminded his listeners that
there was an entirely pragmatic aspect to this thought, for the
indignities and abuses suffered by Jews would in due course be
suffered by everyone else. A state that wields its powers in such a
way will respect the rights of no person, be he citizen, aristocrat or
member of a vilified minority.

Ralph Reed and John McCain: Together
again, from a distance
Political Insider of ajc.com
A Washington Post blog today ponders CNN’s decision to bring
Republican strategist Ralph Reed on as an analyst for the GOP
presidential race.
The newspaper dwells on the history between Reed and John
McCain, winner of Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary.
As chairman of the Senate Indian Affairs Committee, McCain
uncovered much of the Jack Abramoff scandal, and detailed Reed’s
association with now-imprisoned Washington lobbyist. The
revelations cost Reed his shot at lieutenant governor in 2006.
