Civil liberties: freedom of speech "The Tongue Twisters"
This is an interesting article about the struggle to keep up traditional views and uses of freedom of speech while involved in a war and without conflicting with the need for national security. It seems that this article may be appropriate for the beginning of this particular class since it touches on the harsh reality that individual speech may not be as free as we perceive or wish it to truly be.

This was a great article. I was shocked by the number of documents that Bush has supposedly deemed "classified." Although we, in the United States, experience a great amount of free speech and possess the ability to gain access to important information, we are still left in the dark consistently. I look forward to hearing other comments!
