BGLTSA has personally insulted homosexuals and their supporters at large. But although a great many of us would rather not have children passers-by reading BGLTSA's exhortations to pedophilia or obscure, nauseating references to auto-oral-menstrual-eroticism, I saw no conservatives tear down Tuesday's ubiquitous smut. Imagine my outrage, then, upon seeing an avowed liberal, wearing the "coming out day" sticker, nonchalantly destroy two Republican candidate posters Tuesday evening. This movement must abandon its false pretense of open-mindedness. The increasingly bogus "queer" agenda won no supporters and gained at least this opponent today...

...over a long time ago. "Nobody on Planet Earth believes that Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson isn?t going to rule against Redmond on this one," says TIME technology writer Chris Taylor as the Microsoft antitrust trial limped into its penultimate round on Tuesday with the start of final oral arguments. "About all they can do now is keep pressing their case and try to mitigate what will certainly be an unfavorable outcome." Both sides wrapped up with a quick recap of what the trial-watching world has heard oh-so-many times before. The government says Microsoft is a monopoly...

Vaccines, of course, aren't without risk. A slight possibility always exists that those containing live but weakened viruses--oral polio, measles and mumps vaccines, for example--could trigger the disease they're intended to prevent.

...last naturally caused case of polio in the U.S. was in 1979, recent announcements and recalls by government agencies have drawn public attention to the real if very small risks of inoculation. Each year an average of eight children are infected with polio by the otherwise highly effective Sabin oral vaccine, which is made from live but attenuated polio viruses. This danger was highlighted in June, when the Food and Drug Administration recommended the Salk killed-virus vaccine, which is safe but somewhat less effective, instead of the Sabin variety, for the first two of the four required polio inoculations...

...this: he can make hard truths sound funny. It's an invaluable talent in a disinformation age in which it has become more and more difficult to talk about things as they actually are. There's a near constant rush toward metaphorization, toward transmuting events into mediagenic terms. Oral sex isn't about sex, some pundit or other tells us, it's about honesty. Snorting coke isn't about drugs, it's about the media. Shooting up your high school class isn't about gun control, it's about Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Rock cuts through the b.s. Suddenly...
