  3. Postmodern prudes

    Victor Davis Hanson

    The Hartford Courant
    It's been a busy few weeks, what with the election, the Petraeus scandal, the Thanksgiving holiday, and UConn being dissed yet again by the ACC, so I thought I might provide a quick rundown of what's been going on with some of the major players....

  7. American complex

    WASHINGTON -- As events have unfolded in what shall ever be known as "The Petraeus Affair," one cannot escape noticing that the women in this sordid saga have been handed the short end of the shtick, as though the men are mere victims of ambitious, hormonally driven vixens.

  8. State Fiscal Crisis Needs Sex Appeal

    The Hartford Courant
    We have some kind of looming fiscal crisis here in Connecticut, but I don't know much about it because a) it is not a cliff and b) it is not as interesting as other things I could conceivably know about. On the first point, I blame whoever started...

  11. Petraeus' Shakespearian storyline - Fond fools serve mad jealousy

    In William Shakespeare's "Othello," an important general finds himself the victim of a little scheme, concocted by a disgruntled subordinate, to bring him down by making him jealous.
