- Ca suffit! I am back from London and furious. And it has nothing to do with the fire in the Eurostar tunnel forcing me to take a very expensive flight from London Heathrow to Dusseldorf, Germany, to catch a connecting flight to Paris. Bad weather conditions in Germany make the initial flight two hours late departing, causing myself and 20 other Paris-bound passengers to spend the night in ...

- The new kkk has their white hoods off these days because, as they said on their website, they are progressive and more effective in drawing attention to their cause on behalf of the white race, or white christian americans.

- ...a quaint notion, minted in early nineteenth century Europe, which has been variously juggled as a framework for the ordering of society. Or, to put it another way: God's in His Heaven, All's right with the world. So sang Pippa, the little silk-winder from Asolo in Robert Browning's poem, Pippa Passes. I sometimes think he should have made that a qualifying clause: When God's in His ...

- As the presidential campaign rushes toward Election Day, some voters are wondering which candidate is more "real". So pollsters and reporters ask: "Which candidate would you rather watch a football game with?" or "Which candidate would you rather have a beer with?"I think this is more relevant: Would you rather have Barack Obama or John McCain in your book club? ...

Every day it seems like something new has arisen, some further proof that she is so hopelessly daft that her candidacy serves simply to set back the cause of gender equality. Today my vitriol is reserved for a ...

- Alan Greenspan characterized this economic crisis as the worst he's experienced in his lifetime, which was almost immediately disputed by John McCain assuring us, "The fundamentals of our economy are strong," echoed by Dana Perino, channeling George Bush, to tell reporters we have what it takes to deal with the "challenge." I'm going with Alan Greenspan on this one, which ...
