Once again, "in an effort" is not very substantive. Sounds good though. Beyond that, I'm not sure thats a door you want to open.

Bush. My comment was more to the fact that these trials are going to be held in a Civilian court, in New York City. This upcoming trial is going to be far different than the above listed

You must be joking. Have you forgotten congress being asked to push though the Stimulus bill without time to read it because N.P. had to jet off to Europe. The same with the initial Health Care bills presented. How could the people know what was contained in them if congress had no clue. Thats a far cry from transparency.
