WASHINGTON — The Obama administration insists it has no obligation to provide access to a top secret document in a wiretapping case, setting up a showdown next week with the judge who ordered it released.

Obama’s fuel-economy standards are unsafe
May 31, 2009
President Obama’s push to force Americans into smaller cars ignores one big problem — small cars are less safe than big cars. Ignoring this fact will cost lives.
