If you thought a super-linked government database would be secure and convenient: Hackers compromised dozens of Department of Homeland Security computers, moving sensitive information to Chinese-language Web sites, congressional investigators said Monday. Investigators pointed a finger at a governme...

It's because this really IS a topic more sensitive than racism or religion or whatever. That's probably true. Especially because it reflects not only on our own parenting, but on our upbringing. So people get defensive not just for themselves but for their parents as well. But, again, in a separate...

If the US had much control over the Iraqi government, then one would expect the 18 'benchmarks' all to have been met by now. Is it the measure of control of US over the Iraqi government, or is it the measure of control of the Iraqi government (whoever pulls its strings) over Iraq? But this poses a ...
