Mark Steyn is not a fan. Condom regulation is interwoven.
Regrets for that image.
For my own part, as I watch this nearly 3,000 page monstrosity heave itself towards the transom, I can’t help but have some contempt for the whole political process. The GOP seems eager to fight the bill as much to wound the president [...]

Bit of a dispute in the Great White Up. There was a debate between free thinking Wafa Sultan and Danial Pipes that had the temerity to touch on the Aisha situation. In a synagogue.

The comment by Gen. Stanley McChrystal to reporters was in contrast to remarks made a day earlier by U.S. Attorney General Eric [...]
The Speaker of the House’s preferred strategy on passing the Senate’s health care reform bill seems to be declining to vote on it:
Instead, Pelosi (D-Calif.) would rely on a procedural sleight of hand: The House would vote on a more popular package of fixes to the Senate bill; under the House rule for that vote, [...]
Much was made over the outing for political purposes of Saint Valerie Plame, the formerly covert CIA agent who was forced to leave CIA and pose for Vanity Fair magazine after her cover was blown by Washington pundit Robert Novak.
