...past few months, the country had been watching the President stitch together a justification for the invasion of Iraq. The end result was a complicated combination of fear, anger, and hope: fear of weapons of mass destruction, anger that “they” had attacked us, and hope for a better Iraq. A majority of the nation—and a vast majority of our elected officials—seemed to buy Bush’s story. The rest of us grew angry and frustrated.

Regina Spektor Soviet Kitsch Born in Moscow and raised in the Bronx, Spektor sports a rare combination of classical-piano training and hip friends (she opened for the Strokes' last tour...
...planning process has proceeded. That is to say, largely without their input. Some correlate what they see as low endowment payouts with the looming Allston expenditure. On top of that come accusations that the University president is not vetting Allston plans early or often enough with faculty and students. Anger over Allston has already spilled into other initiatives over which the Faculty has more control, and it helped helped convince Faculty members to vote against Summers on Tuesday...
