- Kerry's economic deficit
If it's not bad enough that rapid economic recovery has neutered Sen. Kerry's principal domestic criticism of President Bush, now comes even worse news for the Democratic campaign: - Feminists Silent on Freedom for Iraqi Women
Feminists are more comfortable allowing Iraqi women to endure torture than supporting the Bush Administration. - Queers under siege
I'm sorry to hear about your recent experience in criminal justice class. I don't know why so many criminal justice classes include chapters on 'queer theory' these days. - A contest between big spenders
For fiscal conservatives, the choice this election could hardly be more depressing. - Tort reform, the right way
Everyone this side of the trial lawyers' cabal knows that the civil-justice system is broken. Fewer than 45 cents of every dollar recovered in civil actions wind up in the pockets of the victims; the rest goes to the lawyers and their "overhead costs."
- The Anti-Growth Ticket
Edwards may be an attractive personality and an effective communicator, but on policy substance -- namely torts, trade, and taxes -- he's resoundingly anti-growth and prosperity. - The UN asylum
I was reminded recently of the 1975 classic movie, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, starring Jack Nicholson as Randle Patrick McMurphy, a rebellious convict who gets himself transferred from prison to a mental hospital hoping that his incarceration will be easier under the authority of medics in white coats than prison guards with billy clubs. McMurphy soon realizes that life in the institution is a great deal more destructive than any prison could be. - Malign Condescension - or Benign Neglect?
By now you've probably heard about what Bill Cosby's up to. On May 17, at a Washington, D.C. event celebrating the 50th anniversary of Brown vs. Board of Education, Cosby delivered a jaw-dropping tirade on the failure of many lower-class blacks to get their acts together.
