“We need to stop the daintiness and describe the alleged offenses for what they truly are in the vernacular to somehow try to capture the monstrousness. Not anal intercourse or oral sex, which sounds clinical, but butt-fucking and blowjobs and cock-grabbing and pants-groping and other assorted…

Lara Logan, come on down! You’re the next guest on Hysterical Backstabbing Jealous Hackfest 2010!
I thought I’d seen everything when I read David Brooks saying out loud in a New York Times column that reporters should sit on damaging comments to save their sources from their own idiocy. But now we get CBS News Chief Foreign Correspondent Lara Logan slamming our own Michael...

On a dusty morning in the holy city of Qom, I went looking for a shrine in a walled cemetery of martyrs known as Sheikhan. The graveyard’s walls are lined with glass cases containing the framed photos of soldiers felled by the Iran-Iraq war. The shrine, I’d been told, is a hangout for women seeking temporary marriage, an intriguing mechanism in Shiite Islam for relieving sexual...

Tonight on 60 minutes Andy declared that he would rather get junk mail delivered via USPS than get an email. So I guess all his “I love you, grandpa” emails can languish in hell while he cherishes his Bed, Bath & Beyond flyers.
