Senator Charles Schumer offered a list of five possible Supreme Court Justices if there is a vacancy this summer. Chief Justice William Rehnquist and one other justice is rumored to retire sometime this summer. This would leave President Bush the job to nominate a new one. He / she would then have to be approved by congress.

Schumer met with Alberto Gonzales to discuss how to avoid a bitter nomination batter should there be a vacancy. The goal is to nominate someone who will gain the full support of the Senate. This is very unlikely because President Bush is Conservative. Schumer said he used the criteria of moderation and diversity to come up with his list.

Two Guilty Pleas in Baby Snatching Case A man, Anthony Vanis, and woman, Angela Sorcio, tried to kidnap an infant girl from a supermarket parking lot in Bay Shore. Anthony pleaded guilty to third-degree attempted robbery. Angela pleaded guilty to second-degree attempted kidnapping. They drove together to King Kull en. Sorcio told Vanis that she was going to "jack somebody off for money".

He had no idea she was going to kidnap a baby. Once in the parking lot, Sorcio demanded that the mother hand over her baby. She pulled out a knife. When the mother started screaming, Sorcio fled the scene in Vanis' car. State Supreme Court Justice Michael Mullen heard the pleas of Sorcio. She will receive 6 1/2 years in jail, while Vanis will only receive 1 1/3 to 4 years.

A Real Impeachable Offense Edward Ciaccio shares his view on how the American people are blind when it comes to President George Bush's decision to go to war. He states how Clinton was impeached because he had sex with another woman. This did not kill anyone. Bush has "exaggerated, misled, manipulated, and quite possibly lied" about the war on Iraq. This is an impeachable offense, but, according to Ciaccio, Americans will not do anything about it. The media will continue to favor Bush.

I feel that his view is correct in some way, but a little exaggerated in others. If it is proven that Bush really did lie, he should be impeached, but I think being a war criminal is a little severe. Rebellious City in Iraq poses stern test of American resolve The 3rd Infantry Division has raised the number of American soldiers in Fallujah from 1,800 to 4,000. They were brought here because of resistance from Iraqis. It is meant to send a message to the people that American will not deal with continued resistance. America is trying to control the region they have already conquered.

Now, with more soldiers, the U.S. is able to patrol the streets with more force and do house to house searches for weapons. They are still facing much resistance; three U.S. soldiers have died in the past two weeks. At the same time, they are trying to persuade these people to work with them, not against them. Government May Replenish Rare $2 Bills The two-dollar bill will not go away. The government is thinking about bringing back the dreaded bill. It was last printed in 1996.9.

5 million $2 bills are held in the Federal Reserve's vaults, which is down from the 160 million, seven years ago. The bills might be printed again starting October 1, 2004. The government originally stopped making it because of little demand from banks. Cash registers do not have places for the $2 bill.

They do not plan to redesign the bill. First in that area will be the $20 bill because it is the most counterfeited bill in circulation. This new bill will be coming out later this year. The $2 bill would become the new $1 bill, but that is very unlikely.

Experts say "the $2 bill - just like the penny - is probably going to stick around for.
