...players as well. My point is simply that the “underdog” contention only works when your team is not in the running for the title. I am a Sox fan, so I’ll root for the Marlins in the World Series against the Evil Empire. But if the Sox were playing the Marlins, I would be in delirium rooting for Boston. So when you watch the World Cup and see France against the Central African Republic, root for the little guy. But when you watch the Olympics in Athens this summer, do what billions...

...issue of abortion, that is exactly what some in the Catholic hierarchy and conservative grass roots seek to challenge. These orthodox Catholics believe that no public official can be openly Catholic and support the right to a legal abortion, which the church regards as a moral evil of the highest order. The distinction between someone's private view on the morality of abortion and his or her public stance about its legality is a distinction without a difference, they argue. Until now, that has been simply a rhetorical assertion--and certainly one well within the rights and duties...

...including Dartboard, wouldn’t mind seeing 12 inches of. Seemingly unsatisfied with the status quo, however, too many members of the fairer sex have opted for more. Only this new sort of cleavage is far less to Dartboard’s liking. It’s so evil a town in Louisiana is near to passing a law against it.

...prisoner abuse, in addition to its intrinsic evil, has further tarnished the image of America worldwide, particularly in the Middle East. Already, pundits across the world are comparing Abu Ghraib to My Lai, the infamous massacre of Vietnamese civilians by U.S. forces in 1968. This damage may become irreparable unless decisive action is taken immediately. The nation must dissociate itself from those who allowed the torture and death of detainees to take place under their watch, and Americans must prove that they are serious when they say that such practices are not “the true face of America...

...faint chance, democrats take charge. But Bush's moral certainty almost seemed delusional last week in the vertiginous realities of Iraq. A distressing, uninflected righteousness has defined this Administration from the start, and it hasn't been limited to the President. Bush's overheated sense of good vs. evil has been reinforced by the intellectual fantasies of neoconservatives like I. Lewis Libby and Paul Wolfowitz, who serve Bush's two most powerful advisers, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. It was neoconservatives who provided the philosophical rationale for the President's gut response to the evildoers of Sept. 11: a grand...
