Subject: Andy's political update: day 18 of the bombing

Short and sweet tonight. Wouldn't want you to miss these items:

We don't need no stinkin' jury... Bush has ordered the extrajudicial execution of Osama bin Laden even though six weeks of the most intensive investigation in history has produced only murky evidence. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A27452-2001Oct20.html

Global spin... The new Undersecretary of State for Public Affairs is Charlotte Beers, one of the world's top advertising executives. http://www.state.gov/r/pa/biog/index.cfm?docid=5319

Nobel laureates speak... Read what 17 winners of the Nobel Peace Prize have to say about the current crisis. (Winners of the War Prize were unavailable.) http://www.thecommunity.com/crisis/

Peace be upon you.

Andy
