Davis death-penalty case at crossroads after Supreme Court ruling
Davis sits on Georgia's death row nearly two decades after being convicted for the off duty police officer's killing in Savannah. Recanted testimony and alleged coercion cloud the case as the Georgia Board of Pardons and Parole weighs clemency. Illinois moved to abolish the death penalty, while the broader system remains criticized for flaws and uneven application.

Ann Coulter argues liberals oppose U.S. national interests in Libya and Egypt while praising interventions in regionally distant cases. She contrasts liberal opposition to Iraq with support for invasions that allegedly aid humanitarian goals, claiming Democrats misjudge security costs and benefits. A concluding note cites Coulter's Universal Press Syndicate column.
