The Current Crisis
Stomping on Barbarians
R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr. | 2.22.02
The barbarism committed against the Wall Street Journal’s Danny Pearl would not have surprised Admiral Sir John Fisher.
Washington Prowler
John Edwards Goes to Canosa
The Prowler | 2.22.02

The Virginian
The Other Side
Dave Shiflett | 2.22.02
In Georgia, several hundred bodies have been discovered rotting on the grounds of a crematorium.
Special Report
Government Cheese
2.22.02
If a welfare recipient uses his government check to purchase cheese, does it matter what kind he buys? Couldn’t the same argument be applied to how school vouchers are spent? The Supreme Court will decide.
Movie Takes
Hart’s War
James Bowman | 2.22.02
Instead of getting the lesson in honor we have been promised we get yet another history lesson about how bad Nazis and Southern racists were.

Francis X. Rocca | 2.21.02
Washington and Hollywood players are masters of mutual adoration and servility.
Washington Prowler
Scoundrel Time
The Prowler | 2.21.02
Robert Altman should have kept his word. NPR goes the way of East Germany. The White House reaches out to whom?!
Editor’s Desk
Cold Games
Wlady Pleszczynski | 2.21.02
An Olympic parody. What is world war? Bush goes to Korea.
The Current Crisis
Chicken Celebrity
R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr. | 2.21.02
It is not just that after years of run-ins with the law — usually involving the abuse of women — Mike Tyson remains in the public eye, free to erupt at any time. It is that there are at least three other famous men in the same very public situation.
Another Perspective
Sexual Credits
George Neumayr | 2.21.02
The University of California’s pursuit of egalitarianism over excellence has reached a new level of lunacy.

Washington Prowler
Playing the Percentages
The Prowler | 2.20.02

Loose Canons
Hellfire, No Brimstone

Editor’s Desk
Shifts in Corporate Scandal Coverage
Wlady Pleszczynski | 2.19.02
Is it too late for Terry McAuliffe to request a pardon from his former boss? Or at least claim executive privilege? What was a Bermuda-based company doing signing deals with the U.S. government? Global Crossing comes into its own.
Political Hay
The Dogs of Reform
2.19.02
Shays-Meehan is as unconstitutional as it is cynical. Before signing campaign finance reform, the President will need to recall he took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States.
At Large
The New Cold War Olympics
John Corry | 2.19.02
Old Cold War warriors knew rapprochement would not last, and it turns out they were right. You may especially count Donald Rumsfeld among them.

James Bowman | 2.18.02
This actor’s movie by Fred Schepisi gives us a lovely, deeply affecting portrait of ordinary people in the vanishing cockney subculture of East London.
