Livingstone wrong on Qaradawi - again

15-07-2004 06:55 | Gender | World

“Ken Livingstone has done great work for the gay community, but by rolling out the red carpet for Dr al-Qaradawi he is siding with an oppressor of gay Muslims in Britain and throughout the Islamic world. In the name of fighting Islamophobia, the Mayor is colluding with homophobia. He seems to be downgrading the human rights of lesbians and gay men in order to appease Muslim fundamentalists.”

When will professional investigators begin to retrieve and test the gas canisters? Why has no one but James Longley bothered to document interviews with victims, doctors, and other eyewitnesses?

Take Your Kids to Fahrenheit 9/11 Before the Government Takes Them to War

10-07-2004 01:58 | Analysis | World

San Antonio, Texas, is technically the eighth largest city in the country, with some 1.2 million people, yet Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 opened at only four theaters here.

Like a lot of people around the country, I was intrigued by all the fuss over this movie. The specter of censorship surrounding Moore's film rekindled the teen spirit of rebellion in me.

So my wife and I decided to pack the kids in the car to check this flick out. Heck, any movie that got panned by the folks at that plantation house on the Hill had to be worth seeing.
