As Checked-Bag Fees Pile Up,
Brace for Carry-On Overload;
Barbarians at the Airline Gate
June 17, 2008; Page D1

The carry-on-baggage police will soon be out in force at airports.

As American, United and US Airways prepare to start collecting fees on every piece of checked luggage, including $30 round trip to check one bag and an additional $50 round trip to check a second, they are also getting ready to strictly enforce limits on carry-on baggage -- which are commonly flouted -- in hopes of minimizing delays and disruption as flights board. Battles with customers likely will ensue, and fliers will be peppered with baggage-rule announcements, adding more aggravation to the already trying travel experience.

Hillary Clinton may be out of the presidential race, but the press corps seems intent on continuing to write about her. The latest story line is that her campaign was so expensive that she ended it with the largest campaign debt in the history of presidential campaigns. In addition to the $11.2 million she lent her own campaign, she owed her "vendors" another $9.5 million at the end of April. The May numbers when released are likely to be even worse. The New York Times goes so far as to draw a parallel to the failed presidential bid of former Ohio Sen. John Glenn, who owed nearly $3 million after the Democratic primaries in 1984 and "struggled for more than 20 years" to pay off that debt.

Uh-huh. The Clintons raked in more than $100 million in personal income since leaving the White House in 2001. The idea that they would have any trouble paying back their campaign debts or compensating themselves (regardless of what the campaign laws say) for their own money spent on the campaign is laughable. Mr. Clinton's lucrative new career is almost indistinguishable from political fund-raising -- he gives speeches and shows up in rooms where wealthy people have paid big money to spend time with him. Meanwhile, Mrs. Clinton intends to remain in the Senate and will continue to be besieged by corporations, labor unions and wealthy individuals who want to give her money.

Prices Have to Fall
For Autos to Reach
The Mass Market
By YOSHIO TAKAHASHI
June 17, 2008; Page B4

TOCHIGI, Japan -- Honda Motor Co. President Takeo Fukui said prices have to fall further for fuel-cell cars to reach the mass market, even as the Japanese car maker unveiled the latest generation of fuel-cell vehicle.

Fuel-cell cars are considered the most promising pollution-free vehicles, as they are powered through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, and emit only water as a byproduct.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. lamented that lawyers and "unelected, politically unaccountable judges" would have a greater role in shaping policy toward enemy combatants than military and intelligence officials as a result of the Supreme Court's recent decision on detainees held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba ["Habeas Ruling Lays Bare the Divide Among Justices," news story, June 15].

The three branches of our government are intended to balance one another, with no one branch dominating the others. To suggest that military officials would behave more in the nation's interest because judges are somehow unaccountable is to argue that the executive branch carries a greater burden than the others to protect us from unlawful detention, which is a form of tyranny.
