“There is no reason to believe that will change - in fact, the Republicans will push the administration into ever greater excesses.”

2. For nearly four years, officials here have fought to keep the politically and emotionally charged statement “Guns Save Lives” off city bus shelters.
The city conceded that battle earlier this summer after it lost an appeals court ruling, and advertisements with the controversial statement have popped up at bus stops from downtown to northeast Phoenix.
Aside from stirring conversations about gun rights, the case could have broader implications for how Phoenix regulates the content of ads on the bus and transit system. Civil-liberties advocates say it opens the door for more ads that blend political and commercial messaging.
The dispute started in 2010, when city officials removed from Phoenix bus stops 50 ads with the words “Guns Save Lives” set against the backdrop of a red heart.
Phoenix told the man behind the ad, gun-rights activist and author Alan Korwin, that its message is political and violated the city’s policy against non-commercial advertising on buses and transit stops.
Korwin said the ad, which includes the words “Arizona Says: Educate Your Kids” and a mention of TrainMeAZ.com, promotes a website that links gun owners with training classes. He contends liberal-leaning city officials censored the ad because they disagree with its message.
