...policymakers never try to conceal their agendas in technical wording. The fact that the Stupak-Pitts amendment does not explicitly illegalize abortion means very little when we look at the sector of the population that the amendment will most seriously affect.

Mr. Lewine also underestimates the difference between splurging on an iPod and paying for an abortion. Having an abortion...
...keep professors from leaving or spark any noticeable improvements to the Harvard academic experience.

The hallway of his barracks is hung with a clumsy oil painting of him riding a horse, eyes fixed on the horizon like some latter-day Napoléon. Many in Guinea maintain that Camara lost control over the army within months of seizing power in a Christmas coup after the death of President Lansana Conte. He himself admitted as much after...
