Imagine the NYT soliciting donations on behalf of Mohammed Atta’s family
Posted on 02/19/2007 Written by Leave a Comment
I read this on Debbie Schlussel’s blog: Can you imagine The New York Times writing a sympathetic piece about how Mohammed Atta’s family needs money to fly him for burial in Egypt? It may sound twisted indeed, but not far from what actually appeared in a story about the Trolley Square killer in Salt Lake [...]
Merit pay, an anathema for teachers’ unions?
Posted on 02/17/2007 Written by 3 Comments
It seems simple. Someone does a great job and he is rewarded – typically with more money in a capitalistic society. If he does a poor job; he is not rewarded.

Catholicophobe, Amanda Marcotte, resigns as Edwards’ sweet blogger

Remember how she apologized. Remember how she said she didn’t mean to offend? Remember it was all in jest – satire – parody? Well, being the upstanding young gentlewoman that she is, she’s decided to step aside and allow the Edwards campaign not be tarnished by her speckled past. She is, however, working on a [...]
Congratulations Dixie Chicks! 5 Grammys

How does a group that’s not even nominated for a Country Music Award walk away with wins in all country categories for which they were nominated at the Grammys? Nothing political in that.
