U.S. Constitution suffers appellate defeat. July 6, 2007

The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati ruled 2-1 that the plaintiffs in the case, a group of several dozen academics, activists and journalists, could not demonstrate they had been harmed by the surveillance and therefore cannot sue the government.
Recently, supporters of the Constitution celebrated a major victory in the lower court. Now, the appellate court reversed that decision. One step forward. Two steps back! 
The enemies of our Constitution never surrender. Neither will we.
