  2. Hoping for 'justice' tonight for sniper

    It began in Wheaton with a single gunshot. James D. Martin, 55, had stopped off at a Shoppers Food Warehouse on his way home when, for no apparent reason, an unseen assailant shot and killed him.

  6. Disclose, disclose, disclose

    It didn't take long for Republicans to seize on President Barack Obama's proposed executive order requiring federal contractors to disclose their political donations to third-party groups as supposed Chicago-style, bare-knuckled Democratic politics. That's right — to the GOP and its supporters, expecting companies to admit to spending money on elections is a low blow.

  8. Why hate crimes matter

    The attack on a transgender woman in a Rosedale McDonald's has led to widespread condemnation  of her assailants and bewilderment at the inaction of bystanders — including a (now former) McDonald's employee who videotaped the whole incident. But the question of whether the attack should result in  hate crime charges has proved more divisive.

  12. Voters will decide whether to call a constitutional convention

    Voters in Maryland will get a chance in this year's election to launch a process to revise the state constitution, but experts predict the measure will be a hard sell. Every 20 years, state lawmakers are required to pass legislation placing a...

  14. One year later, time to toss Obama health care

    The country recently marked a sad anniversary. It has been one year since Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid ramrodded President Obama's health care reform legislation through the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate against the will and wishes of the...

  16. Bringing transparency to Maryland elections

    As anyone from the Eastern Shore can attest, last year's race for Maryland's 1st Congressional District was hotly contested and very expensive. The contest between Andy Harris, who had the strong support of tea party groups, and Frank Kratovil, who had the backing of environmental organizations, spurred outside groups like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the Defenders of Wildlife to spend more than $4 million to influence the outcome. But, due to gaping holes in federal disclosure laws, much of this independent spending was about as transparent as the Chesapeake Bay's muddy bottom. Marylanders were left to make sense of a barrage of TV and radio ads with little information about the special interests (some certainly from outside of the state) bankrolling these spending blitzes.

  22. Man on a mission

    Sun Staff
    George L. Russell Jr. was walking to his downtown Baltimore office last week when three men approached him. "Aren't you George Russell?" one asked. "Yes, I am," the 75-year-old attorney replied. "We want to thank you for giving back to the community."...
