...waiting period before teens can obtain a "go anywhere, anytime" driver's license. As the mother of eight kids, I understand fatigue from constant chaperoning. But I would rather chaperone than bury my child or know that my child caused someone's death. The laws are in place to protect not only teen drivers but also their passengers and other drivers on the road with them...
...officials are now asking that Iraqis agree to a program of national reconciliation, changes in the constitution to protect Sunni interests, and an oil law that would share revenues equitably. It's instructive that this initiative aimed at unifying Iraq comes from Americans and not the country's elected leaders.

(He is unlikely, for example, to approve another Wallace and Gromit feature after the first one tanked...
...hurtful, quite simply do not get it. The price of living in an open society is that we are liable to find ourselves contradicted, offended, and distressed at every turn. We pay this price because we are aware of the alternative. However sincere the desire of the writers to protect the emotions of rape victims, their call is one we cannot heed. The world has yet to see the act of censorship that was not advanced as an attempt to conserve, defend, or uphold. To paraphrase Justice Stephen G. Breyer, the proper answer to posters you do not like...
