...That's one reason the U.S. occasionally finds itself threatening the right of women to control their reproductive decisions: Roe v. Wade was a court ruling, not the vote of an elected body, and so the vote of one new Supreme Court justice-a single person-could undo it. Unjust as it may seem, abortion rights in this country will always be tainted with Roe's undemocratic blemish. (See TIME's graphic "New Fronts in the Abortion Battle...
...plausible. The trouble with the initial draft unveiled unartfully last month by Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, says Moody's Economy.com chief economist Mark Zandi, was that it was "too clever by half," creating elaborate incentives for private investors when the simple solution would be to have Uncle Sam immediately wade in, grab control, wring out the bad debt and punish the malefactors.

It felt liberating to be “undecided”, not just about concentrations, but more broadly, about what I wanted to do in life...
...Constitution in Article VI puts religious belief off-limits for selection or qualification for office, including judicial office? In particular, precisely what is a Catholic jurist to do when confronted with the application of laws restricting abortion that, as interpreted by the courts in rulings like Roe v. Wade, would be unconstitutional? If a Catholic judge invalidated laws restricting abortion in conformity with the constitutional precedent, he or she would presumably be cooperating with the evil of abortion. On the other hand, if a Catholic judge ignored the precedent - perhaps seeking to avoid Church sanction, such as the threats...
