...Mouth perpetuates negative, sexist stereotypes. A female columnist in the Village Voice accused Leguizamo of promoting "refried machismo" and "woman bashing." The actor rejects the charge. "To some Latin people, we're not allowed to mock ourselves," he says. "I'm supposed to be doing the Bill Cosby-Brady Bunch syndrome." Leguizamo acknowledges, however, that his unflinching portrayals of Latin lowlifes, louts and losers can trigger a painful catharsis. "Latin culture is very subliminal. There's still a lot of self-hate. It's underneath this mat and rug hidden in the basement, and it's the beast that wants...

...would not (as his did) act as if that specific tradition were being continued to the present day, with no change except that the Puritans' big crimson umbrella now covered a more diverse bunch of Veritas-seekers. Maybe such a prayer wouldn't mention God, but it would still call us to uphold sacred values like "Truth" and "Right" and the "Fair" in "Fair" Harvard...

...none of that matters, because there are plenty of close-ups of Ice's fine-looking cheekbones and fabulously patterned hair (a blond pouf in front and several geometric designs on the side for those keeping score), a bunch of music video scenes with bustier-clad blonds dancing to Ice's new tunes ("I love a girl/And then I diss the same one/Because I know there's more where that came from"), and lots and lots of clothes. Clothes in every color of the neon rainbow, clothes with words on them, clothes with Haringesque graffiti on them, gang clothes, dance...

...hate to say it, especially now that the UC plans to appoint somebody to write me whiny, poorly spelled letters on official council stationery, but the UC is not a real organization. It is a bunch of college kids playing government games, just like The Crimson is a bunch of college kids playing journalism games. (Of course, we have a much cooler building.) Few UC members are characterized by an overwhelming desire to serve their classmates. They like to talk and play power games and, yes, stuff their resumes. So do we. So does everyone at Harvard...

...Thomas' alma mater does not set a shining example for the nominee, or his fellow alums in the Senate. Judging from his remarks, the dean of Yale Law School sounds just as ignorant about the law of sexual harassment as Thomas. Is Anita Hill the only one of the bunch who learned the law at Yale...
