February 22, 2006

As a high school teacher, I can definitely relate to this piece by Kieran Healy discussing the occasionally embarassing and often uncomfortable e-mail addressed used by students.

It’s high time we move past questions about Cheney’s shooting last week, and move towards broader questions about his role in a number of potential illegal actions, including authorizing the Plame leak.
