Those who deny climate change prefer living in a fantasy world
I found it highly amusing that a majority of those taking your reader poll on climate change are still in denial that the looming environmental disaster is man-made. They remind me of the Kevin Bacon character at the end of the movie "Animal House," who...Tags: Ecosystems, Fox News Channel (tv network), Conservation, Global Change

Obama's end zone dance
This week, Republicans have been criticizing President Barack Obama for his surprise trip to Afghanistan marking the one-year anniversary of the killing of Osama bin Laden. By accusing the president of hyping the commemoration, they apparently hope to...

The crisis in public morality
Republicans have morality upside down. They're condemning gay marriage, abortion, access to contraception, and the wall separating church and state. But the moral crisis in America isn't a breakdown in private morality. It's a breakdown in public...

Why I demanded a voice for Sandra Fluke
Rush Limbaugh's recent, despicable three-day attack against law student Sandra Fluke cast a spotlight on a national campaign by Republicans to turn back the clock on 50 years of progress on women's health issues. But his attacks were not the first attempt...Tags: Insurance, Health Treatments, Parties and Movements, Elections, U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform

Politicians in Annapolis gambling away the budget
Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to bury the notion of Governing. It has been suffering the ravages of age for some time now, so it perhaps would not be surprised that people gather to bury rather than praise it. And yet the site of its...Tags: Prince George's County, Casino and Gambling Industry, Executive Branch, Democratic Party, Justice System

Issues vs. 'distractions'
It's going to be bait and switch for as far as the eye can see. That's how it looks now that the smoke has cleared after the recent "Mommy war" skirmish over Democratic operative Hilary Rosen's comment that mother of five Ann Romney had "never worked a...

Limbaugh's sincere apology
The first apology by Rush Limbaugh, posted on his website over the weekend, sounded forced, qualified, almost defensive. The second, broadcast live on his Monday show, sounded sincere and heartfelt. Rush Limbaugh did something not usually associated with...

Contraceptives: The issue is freedom of religion, not birth control
Your editorial, "Rush to judgment on birth control" (March 7) completely misses the point on this issue. Rush Limbaugh's lack of judgment aside, this is not about access to contraception. The real sticking point is the Obama administration's presumption...Tags: Health Treatments, Substance Abuse, Family Planning, Timonium, Birth Control

Rush Limbaugh and WCBM: No sense of decency?
I read Jill Rosen's article on Baltimore advertisers not pulling ads from Rush Limbaugh's show ("In Baltimore, advertisers appear unfazed," March 7) and came away perplexed about what this says about both listeners and advertisers in Baltimore. WCBM...Tags: Radio, Marketing

Limbaugh remark was worse than Imus
On Feb. 29, Rush Limbaugh repeatedly insulted a woman over the radio air waves by calling her a "slut" and a "prostitute." He used those terms to label one innocent and responsible woman. The majority of women in America are using or have used...Tags: Health Insurance, Don Imus, Radio, Sex Crimes, Talk Shows (genre)

Stop Rush Limbaugh? Stop Jugs for Plugs!
The Baltimore SunThe whole dustup surrounding Rush Limbaugh is decidedly not rated G. Slut this. Prostitute that. So when confronted by a critic, the station that airs the Limbaugh show locally understandably attempted to point to something even worse than a talk show...Tags: Advertising, Two and a Half Men (tv program), Music, Comedy (genre), Sex Crimes

CNN, John King, ABC, Brian Ross have nothing to apologize for with Gingrich
The Baltimore SunIn November, I advanced one of CNN's debates with a piece hoping aloud that Wolf Blitzer would not let Newt Gingrich bully him as the the former Speaker of the House had been doing to other debate moderators. Here's a bit of what I wrote: And so it...Tags: Richard Nixon, Nightline (tv program), Television Industry, ABC (tv network), Elections
