...DeLay: I was baptized when I was 12 and immediately walked away from him. (Laughs) And did not walk with him until I got in Congress. When I was elected to Congress, I was a self-centered jerk. Representative Frank Wolf, a Republican of Virginia, had a ministry. He would go to door to door to each freshman. He'd come in and talk to you and invite you to a Bible study and show you a James Dobson video called, "Where's Daddy?" And every bad thing that he was talking about was me. And it really...
...neutral society,” said Kenan Professor of Government Harvey C. Mansfield ’53, in an interview aired this weekend to promote his recent book, “Manliness”. In the interview, shown on C-SPAN 2’s BookTV, feminist writer Naomi Wolf pressed Mansfield on his opinions about gender.

Arms-control groups and some former Bush aides who oppose the deal warn that India might use U.S. nuclear technology intended for its civilian nuclear facilities to expand its weapons program. John Wolf, Assistant Secretary of State for Nonproliferation from 2001 to 2004, complains, "We were outnegotiated."

"A story like this has never been done before," says Trujillo, who plays a sinister Maya warrior named Zero Wolf. "Mel is fearless that way." Mayra Sérbulo, a Mexican Zapotec Indian who has been nominated this year for an Ariel (Mexico's Oscar) as best supporting actress, agrees. "People do have to remember that this is action fiction, not a Maya documentary," she warns. "But I'm frankly surprised...
...catachrestically, occluding all other arguments, embittering and insulting colleagues and—most importantly—neutering the meaning of anti-Semitism so that it works not as the name for violent racial bigotry, but as an unsuccessful attempt to embarrass critics into silence. Like the boy who cried wolf, those who recklessly toss around and redefine terms like anti-Semitism should be held responsible for destroying, through willful catachresis, the use-value of a powerful word of warning. Evidently lacking many positive arguments in support of their candidate, the Summers partisans have re-introduced the term...
