The wealthy poor Pt. 2

The political brouhaha that has come up as a result of the Democrats S-CHIP public relations stunt using Graeme Frost of Baltimore, Md., reached the pages of The New York Times. This new reporting by the Times requires some corrections of facts stated in my previous blog post. The countertops in their kitchen are concrete […]

The wealthy poor

Remember a couple of weeks ago, when President Bush vetoed the extension of the State Childrens Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) and the Democrats responded with a rebuttal to the Bush's weekly radio address by a 12-year-old who had benefitted from the program?

Drugging kids

It's becoming increasingly apparent that doctors -- psychiatrists especially -- are far too cavalier in prescribing behavior-altering drugs for children. Earlier this month word came down that maybe kids under the age of six shouldn't be given over-the-counter cough medicine.

Student speech and layman's expertise

I've been wanting to point out this op-ed piece by one of the lawyers in the case of Harper v. Poway Unified School District, but haven't got around to it. For those who haven't been following the case, Tyler Chase Harper was sent to detention for wearing a T-shirt in response to the Gay, Lesbian, […]
