Hannity claimed "absence of
evidence" that Kerry "was in combat in Vietnam"
FOX News and radio host Sean Hannity made the obviously false claim on his
February 11 radio program that "there is an absence of evidence" that Senator
John Kerry "was in combat in Vietnam." Echoing a syndicated href="http://www.townhall.com/columnists/anncoulter/ac20050211.shtml">column
by right-wing pundit Ann Coulter, Hannity compared Kerry's record in Vietnam
to that of Ward Churchill, the University of Colorado professor who href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A76-2005Feb4.html">compared
some victims of the World Trade Center terrorist attacks to Nazis: "[T]here is
an absence of evidence, just like John Kerry, that he [Churchill] ever was in
combat in Vietnam."
Falwell denied that many
evangelicals opposed Iraq war
Reverend Jerry Falwell erroneously denied that many evangelicals opposed
the U.S.-led war in Iraq. Appearing opposite Sojourners editor-in-chief

Colmes, Falwell called Wallis's claim that "evangelicals around the world
were against the war in Iraq" "baloney" and remarked: "You could fit your
[antiwar evangelical] crowd in a phone booth." After Wallis told Falwell that
"there are evangelical Christians who don't share your pro-war views," Falwell
replied, "I know -- you and href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Sloane_Coffin">William Sloane
Coffin." Coffin is a longtime peace activist and former Yale University
chaplain.

House
passes "Real ID Act"
US legislation targets immigrants, refugees in
"terror war"

Now that is really scary, the "Real ID Act" scares me even more than
the "USA PATRIOT Act". If you haven't seen it, you need to take a
look.
