...abortion business. In a recent letter to members of Congress, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops called the House proposal a "radical change" built around the "illusion" that public funds could be segregated from private funds in a government-run plan or in private plans that accept federal subsidies. "Funds paid into these plans are fungible, and federal taxpayer funds will subsidize the operating budget and provider networks that expand access to abortion," writes Cardinal Justin Rigali in an Aug. 11 letter to members of Congress...

...hard to find reasons why the regime of Muammar Ghaddafi may be loath to accept responsibility for the attack even it agrees to compensate the victims. For one thing, to accept responsibility for a terror attack on a U.S. target that killed 270 people might still invite reprisals - indeed, U.S. counterterrorism officials told the New York Times Wednesday that the trial had showed the limits of using criminal law as a weapon against terrorism, because the real authors of the attack remained unpunished.

...Some rooms are known to throw pretty solid events. These suites, scattered around the campus but most highly concentrated in the Quad (to compensate for the fact that the administration hates Quadlings), are usually freshman boy friendly venues. And their inhabitants fully accept their civic responsibility to host underclassmen. Freshman boys, keep your ears peeled for get-togethers hosted at what we’ll call alternative venues: upperclassmen houses, party suites, the occasional dining hall. We’re willing to wager that more freshmen attended Heaven and Hell in Currier House on Halloween weekend than the freshman formal...
