Sunday afternoon roundup

A twist in the VA governor race. In sum,
"he described working women and feminists as "detrimental" to the family. He said government policy should favor married couples over "cohabitators, homosexuals or fornicators." He described as "illogical" a 1972 Supreme Court decision legalizing the use of contraception by unmarried couples."


In terms of learning from one's national history, Russia is not Germany. Even in the Post's obituary pages, you can find a nonchalant reference to "Russians' growing nostalgia about the Stalinist period."

Scare tactics.

I've never found anyone to bring out the social implications of fashion like Robin Givhan.

A friend and I were just talking about this talking every day thing.

Were these people raised in a barn? You don't extend other people's invitations, especially to weddings.
