Up until now, the Straight Talk Express has been a rare rolling laboratory where reporters--and by extension, voters--could see the inside of the candidate's head, his mood swings, his flights of fancy, his blind spots. But the nature of these sessions has changed. It's no longer about getting to know the amusing long shot. It's about testing his mettle. So the gaffes, all of which are revealing, are coming...

...ramifications for how we deal with intolerance. Rather than deride it and put a blanket over it, perhaps what we really ought to do is bring into the light and draw attention to it. Whether or not Dubya deserves credit for this change is debatable considering he did not express any regret about the policy during his speech. Nevertheless, he had no right to campaign as an environmentalist or as advocate for breast cancer research. If Dubya is going to insist on spending obscene amounts of money on his campaign, the funds should at least go towards something he almost...
Quarterbacked by Steve Young VII in the east, our Mormon comrades will push the Chinese overlords so far downfield they'll be back across the North Pacific in no time. Meanwhile, the descendants of former Federal Express and United Parcel Service agents will swarm every zip code west of Omaha to deliver defeat to the dreaded USPS--overnight guaranteed...
