...Christine Sun, a senior staff attorney for the ACLU, credits the easy win largely to school principal David Davis, who had not exactly hidden his bias. He was reported to have asked a bullied student if she was gay; told her homosexuality was wrong; and forbidden her from wearing a pink breast cancer awareness bracelet that he alleged was a gay pride accessory. Though school board superintendent Steve Griffin denies Davis told the student homosexuality was wrong, calling it a "rumor that the kids took off running with," Davis did tell the court that rainbows and T-shirts with messages...

...Bush's wording was perhaps simplistic, a point U.S. diplomats have been at pains to rectify as they try to dampen the food fight between the two countries. But Bush was not completely wrong, either. There's no doubt that China and India's growing middle classes are consuming more and different types of food. As people get richer they tend to eat more meat and dairy products, for instance, and that's exactly what's happening in China and India. That growing demand will naturally push up prices over the long term. But it's debatable whether the huge...
