  1. Delaney, state's newest congressman, starts term

    Maryland's newest member of the House of Representatives, Democrat John Delaney, was sworn into office Thursday amid a flurry of symbolism and celebration but also apprehension over issues left unresolved by the last Congress.

  3. What Maryland can do to reduce gun violence

    When President Barack Obama talked about the violence in Newtown, Conn., in his weekly radio address on Saturday, he urged the nation to act not only to stop mass killings like that one but also those that occur on "countless street corners in places like Chicago and Philadelphia." He might well have included Baltimore in that list, as our homicide numbers, though still low by the standards of recent history, have crept back above the macabre threshold of 200 again this year. Mr. Obama has pledged meaningful national action to stop the scourge of gun violence, and he has ordered Vice President Joe Biden to convene a task force and make recommendations for action within weeks.

  5. O'Malley takes a stand on guns

    State and federal politicians have been scrambling for the last few weeks to react to the school shootings in Newtown, Conn., with governors, congressmen and the president exploring new laws that might have prevented that tragic massacre. But today, Gov. Martin O'Malley announced the outlines of a package of legislation that would do much more than merely react to that terrible act. He pledged to take some of the steps that many of his peers are pursuing, such as a ban on assault weapons and large-capacity magazines, but also to pursue a comprehensive licensing system for handgun buyers. That last proposal will be difficult to enact, even in heavily Democratic Maryland, but it could be the most helpful step the legislature could take this year to stop the flow of illegal guns that contributes to hundreds of murders in Baltimore every year.

  7. Gun violence isn't the only threat the Obama administration needs to address

    I agree with Vice President Joe Biden's concern about protecting our children from gun violence ("Biden vows swift steps on guns," Jan. 12).

  9. Biden's faulty lifeguard logic

    "As the president said, if your actions result in only saving one life, they're worth taking," Vice President Joe Biden declared last week as he previewed what his commission on gun violence might actually do.

  11. Can we finally close the gun show loophole?

    Whether it's the indelible horror of the massacre at Newtown, Conn., or the tone-deaf response of the National Rifle Association and its allies who have shown themselves so hysterical and paranoid on the subject of gun rights, the public's hunger for action on gun violence shows little sign of weakening.

  15. View China as a partner, not a problem

    In a few weeks, President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will be reinaugurated with great fanfare in Washington. Shortly after that, in Beijing, Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang will ascend to the presidency and premiership of China. (China's premier is the second-highest office but unlike the American vice president is more like the country's chief operating officer, with the president as chief executive officer.) If our political leaders would play their cards right, the concomitant inaugurations could be prelude to a brilliant new start for our relationship with China.

  17. Kanye West has a 'baby mama' in Kim Kardashian and other stressful news close out 2012

    Goodbye 2012, it's been real. But on the trends front, we end on a sad note. <strong>Kim Kardashian</strong> and <strong>Kanye West </strong>-- two of the most obnoxious people in the world -- are reproducing. Joe Flacco can't even claim the title of the NFL's most pathetic quarterback. Thanks to <strong>Congress</strong>, the economy may be on the verge of collapse. And <strong>Hillary Clinton</strong> is in the hospital with a blood clot.&nbsp;
