...back on a man like Senator Joe Lieberman," the Connecticut Democrat (and Cheney counterpart on Al Gore's ticket in 2000) who lost his primary over his support for the Iraq war, and is now running as an independent. "It's a reminder that the elections on November 7th will have enormous consequences for this nation, one way or the other," he says. It's a message he seems to deliver with relish. And in these crowds, the audience returns the favor...
...Which one do you give your kid? It depends on how old your child is, obviously, but it also depends on what kind of parent you are.

But until that day at the beauty salon, I had ignored any hint of a return to 7th-century mores, preferring to savor a few extra weeks of denial before the government-issued burqa arrived at my doorstep. A month ago I met a few girlfriends for coffee at a caf? popular with young people. Upon lighting a cigarette, one of them was informed by the embarrassed owner that smoking is now illegal for women in caf?s. Now half the women I know don't go out for coffee anymore. An ingenious...
