Today's Show: Thursday, May 4, 2006

By Nazanin Rafsanjani

Hello. Good morning from The Rachel Maddow Show. On the show this morning, Chief Investigative Correspondent at US News and World Report, David Kaplan joins us to talk about the history of government spying on ordinary American citizens.

Also on the show this morning, we saw massive immigration rights rallies around the country last Monday.  Today, in our weekly segment sponsored by the Service Employees International Union, we're joined by the President of the National Capital Immigration Coalition, Jaime Contreras, to talk about the next step in the fight for immigrant rights.

FRONT PAGE:
A warning about a tsunami near the South Pacific nation of Tonga never actually reaches Tonga

Ken Starr's new case.

UNDERBELLY:
First Lady Laura Bush says singing the national anthem in Spanish is perfectly ok...then she says it isn't...all in one interview.

PET STORY:
The next Bush judicial nominee?

I have a question about the Tongan Islands

Since Tonga is nation of 170 islands, how much of the Tongan islands are above sea level?

 

A Tsunami of 17 inches would really cause havoc on an island community that is only a few feet above sea level.
