MERRY CHRISTMAS, MR. PRESIDENT...

If you don't know what to get President Bush for Christmas, maybe the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) can help. After 37,000 people joined their grassroots campaign to give Bush the ultimate all-American gift this holiday -- a Constitution that "forbids torture and spying on Americans without a warrant" -- activists went to the White House to deliver the goods. Naturally, they had help from a very special guest. The YouTube clip of the festivities, titled simply "G.W. Bush hates Santa," is the third most watched video of the week in the nonprofits category. CCR, which was founded in 1966 as the legal arm of the civil rights movement, has recently taken Bush administration officials to court for domestic spying, torture and rendition. (Full disclosure: I once worked at CCR, but there were no sleigh field trips back then.)
