  1. The Fugs still riotous after all these years

    The Fugs finally return to Chicago on Saturday at the City Winery after a 44-year absence. The reception for the band is bound to be a bit warmer than it was when the counter-culture pioneers last performed here, on Dec. 28, 1968, at the Aragon Ballroom.

  2. Newton: A new voice atop L.A.'s teachers union

    Warren Fletcher wrapped up his work three weeks ago as an English teacher at City of Angels and moved over to the headquarters of United Teachers Los Angeles, where he is the union's new president. He missed his first negotiating session because he had to finish grading papers, and arrived at the union's imposing if slightly run-down mid-rise in Mid-Wilshire with so little fanfare that many people didn't even know he'd taken office. But Fletcher's soft start should not fool anyone: With his election, he has become one of the region's most formidable political forces, commanding a battle-hardened phalanx of unionists in desperate need of fresh leadership.

  3. Oh, nuts! It's secession talk again

    Once upon a time, society had the decency to keep its nut jobs largely under wraps.
    Once upon a time, society had the decency to keep its nut jobs largely under wraps. We were like a giant Snickers bar. You knew the nuts were in there. But they were tucked safely away between the chocolate and the nougat. The Internet changed all...

  4. Vibrancy Of Markets Vs. Suffocation Of Statism

    The Hartford Courant
    The presidential campaign, hitherto a plod through a torrent of words tedious beyond words, began to dance in Denver. There a masterfully prepared Mitt Romney completed a trifecta of tasks and unveiled an issue that, because it illustrates contemporary...

  5. New ideas? GOP would rather just say 'no'

    After declining to give details of the Romney-Ryan tax plan during a testy back-and-forth with host Chris Wallace on "Fox News Sunday," GOP Rep. Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney's vice presidential running mate, offered a novel excuse. He didn't want to put viewers to sleep.

  6. For Mitt Romney and us, Ayn Rand is poor role model

    Mitt Romney's choice of Paul Ryan as his running mate has ramped up interest in the author/philosopher Ayn Rand. Ryan is backing away from her these days, mostly because of her atheism and other inconvenient social views, but he has proclaimed more...

  8. Goldberg: The right candidate

    On Saturday, Texas Gov. Rick Perry got into the race for the GOP presidential nomination, and within 24 hours, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty got out.
    On Saturday, Texas Gov. Rick Perry got into the race for the GOP presidential nomination, and within 24 hours, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty got out. Perry didn't exactly chase Pawlenty out of the race; the Iowa straw poll (in which T-Paw finished a...

  9. Meghan Daum: Obama's fast brain vs. slow mouth

    Apparently, a lot of people consider President Obama to be bumblingly inarticulate. "The guy can't talk his way out of a paper bag!" a reader wrote to me recently. "Sarah Palin is a brilliant speaker. It's the president whose sentences are undiagrammable," said another in response to a column I wrote about Palin. It's not just my readers, nor is it exclusively conservatives, who hold this view. A Google search of "does Obama have a speech impediment" turns up several pages of discussion among the president's supporters and critics alike.Admittedly, the president is given to a lot of pauses, "uhs" and sputtering starts to his sentences. As polished as he often is before large crowds (where the adjective "soaring" is often applied to his speeches), his impromptu speaking frequently calls to mind a doctoral candidate delivering a wobbly dissertation defense.

    My column Saturday contrasted the philosophies expressed by author/philosopher Ayn Rand and the heroes of her novels with the Harper Lee character Atticus Finch. Specifically, I cited something Finch said to his daughter in "To Kill a Mockingbird." "You...
