in order to get high. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Somewhat related: Unwanted sexual contact in college. I recall that “unwonted” was more like it my freshman year. I don’t think that this study says anything about sexual contact that is unwanted ex post facto, but Shakespeare understood the coyote hangover well:

From Belmont: Abu Ayyub al-Masri, the head of al-Qaeda in Iraq was captured today in the northern city of Mosul according to the Iraqi ministry of defense. Al-Masri’s life parallels that of al-Qaeda itself. Born an Egyptian he followed al-Qaeda’s fortunes from the Middle East to Central Asia and back. According to US sources, Masri was born in 1967, “joined the Muslim Brotherhood, and in 1982 … joined Egyptian Islamic

Most of the buzz over Hillary Clinton’s comment about her support among “white Americans” was generated in the Leftosphere (Allahpundit being an exception), so I wanted to flag the suggestion by TNR’s Michael Crowley that it “it seems better than reliance on cutesy euphemisms like ‘working class’ or ‘electability’” as dead wrong. As previously noted here, Obama’s problem has not been with white voters generally, but with certain sub-groups of

(with related commentary on Mother’s Day): Comment by happyfeet on 5/8 @ 12:37 pm # Oh that’s right. Mother’s Day. I did that yesterday. I very nearly forgot but Other Guy mentioned it. I spent more than I wanted to I think but it’s kind of cool cause mom’s getting a plant that comes from this place that just mostly exists to employ special people who don’t think so good,

Piltdown Men! No, actually: Last, why do these Duke professors bother to write about the Duke lacrosse hoax if they are not going to deal with their own actions honestly? If they can’t simply face the truth, they should put down their shovels and stop digging. It’s often really amazing to find out who the real victims of such acts of rhetorical violence (even when they don’t instrumentalize governmental institutions

Veteran journalist Don Campbell puzzles over that question in a column at USA Today.  Sister Toldjah and Jimmie at the Sundries Shack criticize Campbell for not clearly identifying the establishment media’s general liberal bias as the culprit.  Campbell does say that “Obama has been ill-served by a press corps that seemingly was mesmerized by the large, frenzied crowds who turn out to see the Democratic rock star,” which partially embodies the problem — Campbell

MSMer notes oddity of Obama’s long-time pass on his unsavory associations! Please don’t forget to kick into Jeff’s Dem Convention fund.  I realize there are a lot of worthwhile causes out there, but none of them is as likely to provide as much entertainment.  I’ll tell you what: You can even specify what you’d like Jeff to do with it, if you like.  Such as procure an abortion for a colored

House Republicans fear double-digit losses this November.  Senate Republicans are defending six open seats and lag the Democrats in fundraising by a 2:1 margin. Nevertheless, the latter think they may be able to hold the damage to a net loss of two seats, due in part to big, fat tax deadbeat Al Franken: Minnesota is trending Democratic, and both President Bush and the Iraq war are wildly unpopular in the state. Minnesota

Democrats won control of Congress in 2006 promising a “new direction” on a panoply of issues.  As the election season heats up, however, Congress finds itself helping itself in the most old-fashioned ways. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is about to ram through a war spending bill that will (ultimately) not include troop withdrawal conditions.  Why?  Democrats are using the bill as leverage for billions of dollars in domestic spending priorities, bypassing whatever meager
