This week in the NJJN:

• Jewish Dems meet up in NJ, and the talk is about earned income tax credits (no –just kidding. They talked about Obama)
• Israel’s version of “Wife Swap” finds a gay dad in South Orange to change places with a mom in the Holy Land
• How do you say the Four Questions in Klingon?
• Former NJ Gov. Thomas Kean has harsh words on the Bush administration’s civil liberties record:

During wars past, he said, “our freedoms bent, and they bent too far in most cases. But they didn’t break, and the saving grace was the good sense of the American people.”

“But today, the president says, ‘We are at war, and we have to sacrifice some of our liberties.’ Our liberties have always been restored after war,” said Kean, but “now, when is peace going to come?”

“When is the global war on terror going to come to an end? No one can say.

“No peace treaties are going to be signed. There will be no victory parades. Therefore, we have to act now. We can’t allow our civil liberties to erode in this kind of war because we don’t know when we will get them back.”
