Civil Rights
Here's some ironic timing. On the same day that President Bush commemorates the 40th Anniversary of Civil Rights Act, a Florida court has to force the state to release the names of "suspected felons" it is purging from the eligible voter rolls.
Recall that in 2000, the sounds-like felon name trick was used to remove many minority (i.e., Democratic) people from the voter list.
Fourty years hasn't changed everything.
