Given the postelection focus on "moral values," indecency has been even more oversimplified as a red-state-vs.-blue-state issue. But it doesn't break neatly along Republican and Democrat lines. It is one of the few issues capable of uniting, on one side, Rush Limbaugh and Howard Stern, and on the other, New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum. If the FCC is strengthened, Limbaugh has argued, what happens when a future Democratic Administration decides that conservative talk radio is violence-inciting "hate speech"? Meanwhile, earlier this month, Clinton took the stage with Santorum...
...only imagine the Republican wrath and utter ridicule-the Rush Limbaugh fulminations-if, say, John Kerry had proposed a similar policy: Let's pin our Middle East hopes on the statesmanship of Hizballah and Hamas. But that is where the democratic idealism of the Bush Doctrine has led us. If the President turns out to be right-and let's hope he is-a century's worth of woolly-headed liberal dreamers will be vindicated. And he will surely deserve that woolliest of all peace prizes, the Nobel...
...those on the right, true freedom requires more diversity--which, to them, means more conservatives in faculty ranks. "If the system were fair," says Larry Mumper, sponsor of the Ohio bill, "Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity would be tenured professors somewhere." Says Wisconsin assemblyman Steve Nass, a UW-Whitewater alumnus and chief sponsor of the Churchill resolution: "[Legislators] deal with the tax dollars that are put into the UW system. We have a responsibility to see that they are used appropriately." He may soon propose a Horowitz-inspired bill in Wisconsin...
President Larry Summers did not mention the breaking news in his special edition faculty meeting Tuesday. But Rush Limbaugh sure did. The man who in the last week has stepped nobly to Summers’ defense threw another piece of research right back at the man from Bath: apparently, German scientists have concluded that short index fingers—and thus less estrogen—are also linked to better driving and spatial skills...
McNabb inherited his humility from his parents. Sam McNabb is a retired electrical engineer, Wilma McNabb a nurse. Long before the Limbaugh snub, Donovan got a harsh lesson in racism. When he was 8, the McNabbs moved from the South Side of Chicago to suburban Dolton, Ill. They were one of the first African-American families to settle in Dolton. Shortly after they arrived, someone vandalized their home. Neither McNabb nor his parents carried a chip. They sent him to Mount Carmel High School, a diverse Catholic school on the South Side, where he honed not only his passing game...
