When Saddam Hussein flouted United Nations (U.N.) resolutions calling on him to disarm, the Security Council threatened “serious consequences” but did nothing. As Ralph A. Cossa, president of the Pacific Forum Center for Strategic and International Studies, noted in his group’s policy journal, “French President Jacques Chirac seemed more concerned about containing George Bush (or U.S. global leadership in general) than Saddam’s weapons of mass destruction.” Chirac’s political maneuvering, enabled by France’s veto power on the Security...
...Ralph Nader would be furious to hear me talking this way. He’d argue that I should vote for the truly progressive candidate, because there’d be no difference between Clark and Bush anyway. Four years ago, I believed Nader when he gave me the same rap about Al Gore and Bush.

His music is sentimental and nice to listen if one takes Sting as seriously as he takes himself. Unfortunately...
...Citizens of Humanity to show off the results of all those hours at Wellbridge. On days when her response paper for History of Art took a little longer than she had scheduled (all tasks are scheduled in a Smythson leather-bound day-planner), she throws on a brightly colored Ralph Lauren crew knit and thanks God for that amazing weekly blow-dry from Gino. On the weekend, the routine is more complex: out comes the Earl mini (and with it, the Carriage House salon leg wax), the BCBG floaty, chiffon Grecian-style blouse and the teardrop pearl earrings her parents...
