...morning after the education reform bill finally made it out of conference committee after five months of often bitter negotiations, three of the bill's original architects, Democratic senators Mary Landrieu, Joe Lieberman and Evan Bayh, took a few minutes to gloat.

Later in the day, President Bush pronounced the reforms "historic" and Ohio Republican John Boehner, who ushered the bill through the House, proclaimed, "These landmark reforms will bring purpose to a federal law that has lost its focus and never...

...dedicated us again to the cause of justice within our country, today we must be dedicated to the cause of justice out in the world. Only if we stand for honesty, uprightness and generosity of spirit can we expect the world to bear our standard against terrorist-supporting regimes. Bayh and McCain were right when they wrote, “Public service is a virtue.” Now, more than ever, it is a virtue to do public service abroad...
