December 12, 2011
Mitt Romney's position on gay rights doesn't quite lend itself to a
bumper
sticker. Depending on whom you ask, it is either too thoughtful and
nuanced,
or too inconsistent and politically expedient. Either way, it's
definitely
got the GOP presidential candidate on the defensive.

When New York adopted no-fault divorce in 2010 after decades of failed

More than a year later, critics say more troubling aspects of the reform

Mickey Kaus has alerted readers to a change in the way the federal
government figures the poverty line and that new way so alters the formula
that we will never be able to show any improvement in rates of poverty going
foward. Worse, the new formula stops measuring strict want and instead
measures a more vague “inequality” of income.
The Obama administration has reinvented the poverty formula and is now
