CHURCH HILL, Tenn. - Investigators are searching for whomever poured deer urine into an air conditioning unit at a school in eastern Tennessee. About a dozen students became ill after the prank at Volunteer High School in Church Hill.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Hillary Clinton on Tuesday backed her husband, Bill Clinton, for fervently refuting questions about his anti-terror strategy, even as Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice challenged the former president's claims that he aggressively pursued Usama bin Laden.

BRIGHTON, Colo. - An activist arrested during a raucous meeting to discuss embattled University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill must stand trial on a charge of assaulting an officer, a judge ruled.

A judge ruled last week prosecutors have enough evidence to try Aleem on a charge of second-degree assault on a police officer. He faces up to 16 years in prison if convicted. Aleem and university police scuffled when...

I'll be live-blogging the Presidential debate tomorrow night; Deacon and the Trunk may be as well. Some time during the evening, President Bush will be asked about his plan, or maybe his exit strategy, in regard to Iraq. Bush doesn't talk like Winston Churchill, of course, but in my view, he needs to echo Churchill's words in the first speech he gave to the House of Commons after assuming office as Prime Minister in 1940: You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea, and air. War with all our might and with...

August 31, 2004OP-ED COLUMNISTThe Courage FactorBy DAVID BROOKS ohn McCain, Rudy Giuliani and Arnold Schwarzenegger are the big stars of the first two days of the Republican convention, but they didn't get their prime-time slots because they're moderates. If the Republican Party had wanted to play up the moderate angle, they'd have put together the same sort of multihued and gender-balanced schmaltzfest they did in 2000. McCain, Giuliani and Schwarzenegger are speaking because they are brave. I don't know if you have noticed, but this whole campaign has revolved around courage. From the day Howard Dean took on the...
