Judge Orders U.S. Military

to Stop ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’

 

October 12, 2010

The New York Times

By JOHN SCHWARTZ

 

A federal judge on Tuesday ordered

the United States military to stop enforcing

the “don’t ask, don’t tell” law that prohibits

openly gay men and women from serving.

Judge Virginia A. Phillips of Federal District Court

for the Central District of California

issued an injunction banning enforcement of the law

and ordered the military to immediately “suspend and

discontinue” any investigations or proceedings

to dismiss service members.

In language much like that in her Sept. 9 ruling

declaring the law unconstitutional,

Judge Phillips wrote that the 17-year-old policy

“infringes the fundamental rights of United States

service members and prospective service members”

and violates their rights of due process

and freedom of speech.

Whileconcession [ même si ] the decision is likely

to be appealed by the government,

the new ruling represents

a significant milestone for gay rights in the United States.

There is some truth to this.

"It's my personal aim

that Bush is removed from the White House,"

says Moore, who has hired former Clinton operatives

as a rapid response unit to any attacks

that impugn the film's integrity.

"But if the movie can inspire a few of the 50%

of the Americans who do not vote to get involved

and be engaged, then that is important."

While [ même si ] the film is far more subtle

than Moore's previous work,

there are few who have seen it

who believe it will convert anybody

who has not already made up their mind.

But what it could do is galvanise

those who may vote to get organised,

and encourage those not inspired

by the Democratic candidate, John Kerry,

to go to the polls to remove Mr Bush.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21 -

The Bush administration on Friday unveiled rules

for the new Medicare drug benefit

that guarantee patients

access to a wide variety of medicines

while giving insurance companies potent tools

to control costs.

[ tout en ]

 

Issuance of the rules is one of the most significant events

between Dec. 8, 2003, when President Bush signed

the Medicare law, and Jan. 1 next year,

when the drug benefit becomes available.

The rules, which were made final after a long, contentious

public comment period, will govern all who might be involved

in the new program: health insurers, employers, drug

manufacturers, pharmacies, benefit managers and up to 41

million elderly and disabled people covered by Medicare.

On many issues, the rules strike a balance between

competing interests.

On the one hand, the rules say that every prescription drug

plan must provide "adequate coverage of the types of drugs

most commonly needed" by Medicare beneficiaries. These

include drugs to treat high blood pressure, heart disease,

cancer, osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease.

On the other hand, the rules say that a plan can establish

a list of preferred drugs and can refuse to pay for other

medicines.

It was partly to try to bring Islam out from the shadows,

and to co-opt its tough-talking leaders, that Mr Sarkozy

set up the French Council of the Muslim Faith (CFCM)

in 2003.

The idea was to give Islam an official voice,

and to temper it by offering recognition.

In one sense, this has worked.

Although the component factions on the council

have spent much time squabbling,

the CFCM helped the government

with its headscarf ban by deciding not to contest it.

Even the UOIF’s decision this week

to issue a unilateral fatwa was a useful appeal for calm.

But the worry now is that radical groups,

unrepresented on the council,

may exploit the current anger.

When [ quand / lorsque ] the French rejected the European

Union constitution earlier this year, it seemed at the time

his government has been making headlines around the globe

The referendum rejection was seen as a wake-up call

for the governing class from an electorate

that was fed up  and fearful.

Now France has delivered one even more shrill.
