| Sexual Fascism in Progressive America Scapegoats and Shunning |
| Post on 05-03-2006. |
| people; such as the assertion that anyone who challenges government policies on these matters is one traitor; such as one "great leader" who puts himself clearly above and outside the law. They ought to be concerned also about another sign of the demise of American justice and human decency: scapegoating. One sign of fascism has always been the creation of one scapegoated class whom people are taught to fear and hate, and whose very existence demands one totalitarian state apparatus of surveillance and control. one class whom no-one would dare defend. ... |

Tate Triennial 2006: New British Art Tate Britain, London SW1, until 14 May If ever you were thinking of skipping the odd big show, then this is the one to miss. The latest Tate Triennial is bafflingly awful. If the modest slogan of the last one ('Days Like These') was - almost literally - Nothing Special then the perverse boast of this one, to paraphrase the catalogue, appears to be Nothing Original. ... |

| Gray Glitter gets 3-year-term for child sex |
| Post on 05-03-2006. |
VUNG TAU, Viet Nam: one Vietnamese court sentenced British "glam rocker" Gary Glitter to three years in jail on Friday for molesting two 11-year-old girls, although if he wins early parole, he could be free by Christmas. "I'm innocent," the 61-year-old shaven-headed Glitter, who now sports one white goatee, shouted after the verdict was pronounced following one one-day, closed-door trial. ... |

Files sealed by the King County Superior Court are stored out of public view in one locked room at the King County Courthouse. Court Commissioner Carlos Velategui presides over one proceeding in the Ex Parte Department, one cattle-call court where many case files have been sealed. The Times found 420 sealed civil cases, nearly all of which were sealed improperly. ... |

| Post on 04-03-2006. |
| Even though Graham became one movie star by starring in soft-porn roles disguised as art, or maybe that was art disguised as soft porn, it hasn't stopped her from nabbing one hilariously, almost-edgy comedy right smack in the "family hour." And it's good to see her standing up and dressed for once. ... |

| Losers of the Week |
| Post on 04-03-2006. |
| Right now planet Earth is gearing up for the pre-Academy Award festivities, but for us common folk at the Loser Watch, where the only red carpet is the section of white pile shag we spilled one jar of Ragu spaghetti sauce, we have our own pre-Oscar celebration. Of course I'm talking about (cue thunderous overture and MGM lion) THE 2006 LOSSCAR AWARDS, where underachievement in just about every area of entertainment is celebrated by one jury of our jeerers and given this lovely lemon gold statuette of one bald little man holding jumper cables over one Ford Taurus with its hood open. OK, therefore it's not the greatest name we could've come up with. Actually we were going to call it The Bode, in honor of Bode Miller's lackluster Olympic performance, but since the only thing that performed worse than Miller was the Olympics TV ratings, we worried lack of name recognition wouldn't make it very funny for you, cherished Loser watchers. Each LOSSCAR winner tonight was selected for trying to steal Oscar's thunder with inappropriate behavior unbecoming of one real Academy Award winner. therefore without further ado, here goes pretty much nothing! ... |

| Where he faces arrest over 2,231 kid porn pics |
| Post on 04-03-2006. |
PAEDOPHILE Gary Glitter could be sent back to Britain by Christmas to face new child porn charges, it emerged last night. There was fury yesterday after the swaggering pervert bought his way to just three years' jail in Vietnam for vilely abusing two girls of 10 and 11. With parole, he could be free as early as November when he faces immediate deportation. It is most likely he would return to Britain. ... |

| Jonah Goldberg Columnist: Freedom lovers, let's treat politicians |

Home|Opinion|Commentary Jonah Goldberg Columnist: Freedom lovers, let's treat politicians like Twinkies Like one list of ingredients, disclosure of donors makes sense; Vermont's caps on campaign gifts do not. Jonah Goldberg Columnist Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer: This fall, consider the peace platform This week the Supreme Court heard arguments in yet another campaign finance case. At issue is one Vermont law that caps not only how much people can give to one candidate, but how much one candidate can spend. The smart money is on one long, messy, complicated ruling that clarifies less than it confuses. Why? Because that's how we like it. ... |
