Now, Bush should take "yes" for an answer. So far, the administration seems stuck on using the president 's "mherent" constitutional authority to tap suspected terrorists , but Bush would be on stronger ground if he agreed with Congress on a plan to establish its legality. , Some Democrats still want to investigate Bush for what they see as his breaking the law with the program. But most now seem to accept that it's a valuable antiterronsm tool that ought to be continued. That, more or less, was the view expressed by Democratic Sens. Edward Kennedy, Mass. , Dick Durbin, Ill., Herb Kohl, y.'is ., and Joseph Biden, Del., when Attorney General 'Alberto Gonzales testified last week before the Senate Judiciary Committee. And II certainly is the view expressed by Rep . Jane Harman, D-Calif., ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee, in various interviews, . including one with me, and by former Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D. , on "Meet the Press" last Sunday. That stance is a reversal for Daschle. On Dec. 23, he wrote in an op-ed in The Washington Post that Bush never asked for nowarrant wiretap authority in the aftermath of the Sept. II, 200 I, terronst attacks, and that "I did not and never would have supported g1v.ing authonty to the pre sident for such wiretaps ." Yet, . on "Meet the · Press," Daschle satd "we all support going after· the terrorists. We support the program." And when eign intellig ence policy.

ADVERTISE YOUR BUSINESS IN THE CLASSIFIED$ 9 four kinQ. spades? ent How can the defenders defeat North's three-heart reblq is a game-fore· ing cue·bid. Usually the responder is hop· ing that his partne r :-viii ne)CI bid three notru mp with a-stopper in heart s,·the opponent's suit. ' West leads his h'igher heart and East wins wilh his jack. (Th ird hand. when playing the highest card so far contributed to the tnck, puts in the bottom of his touching cards.) Then East cashes the hea rt. ace, seeing his partner complete an echo (high-low). East continues with a third high heart. What can South do? If he ruffs law, West overruffs and collects the spade king later for down. one. So let's assurpe South ruffs with the spade queen (or jack) . Now West must be patient. !f he overruffs, declarer wins the next trick and drawS trumps, losing only one spade and two heart s. But if West d tscards, he will .collect two trump tricks to defeat the con· . tract. Do not overruff with a_ n honor that will still score a trick tate r unless you have some· thing vital to do immediately. Why did ·I give the original quotation ? For . two reasons: Patience' was required by West in the deal , and the words were spoken b~ Sir Gites Overreach. .AstroGraph <lllur'lllrlhdl:iY: VVedne•d•~Feb. 22,2~ I! • J on SAVINGS PUBLIC NOTICE NOTICE : is hereby given that on Friday; February 24, 2006 at 10:00 a.m., ~ public sale will be held at 54330 State Route 681, Reedsville, Ohio.
