Message to Graduates: "Be a Good Ancestor"
My generation and our predecessors haven't been responsible caretakers. But you can be. Be resilient. Find friends who have your back. And above all, be a good ancestor. You can. And you must.

Why is it that the lady is being asked to step aside when the gentlemen in a similar situation rarely were?

Samantha Power is a Pulitzer Prize winning author and foreign policy expert who specializes in human rights and is a tireless fighter against genocide...

The Scotsman's editors gave in to the temptation of gaining a huge amount of publicity by quoting Power's remark -- disregarding the basic ethical rules of journalism. Simple as that!

If experience is the field Clinton wants to play on, then McCain wins hands down. She's practically giving McCain the election.

Power's candid comments sent the Obama campaign scurrying and invited the Clinton campaign and the media to rain a storm of fire on their heads, and underscores the reason for the paucity of candor in our political process.

As the Clintons tactically attempt to scare the electorate, Obama should be mindful that, as in the stock market, fear works quicker than hope.

Obama aide Samantha Power, who was quoted as referring to Senator Clinton as, "a monster," has quit the campaign. Although the comment was made off-th...

I've watched Hillary's descent into pettiness and fear-mongering with the heartbreak of a child who grows up to realize that his beloved mother has been a terrible person all along.

What seems to be shaping up between Clinton and Obama is a battle between their staffs not over which one will win elections, but which one will lose.
Art Brodsky | Posted 03.07.2008 | Politics
Imagine Obama and Clinton (and their unruly surrogates) not spending valuable energy slamming each other, but instead competing to keep the McCain and Bush records in the news.
Eric Deggans | Posted 03.07.2008 | Media
We're at a point in the campaign where the world's media is on full-fledged "gaffe mode." If anyone should know how to conduct herself around a reporter she doesn't know in a situation like this, it should be Power.

Don't know what made me think of those two movies today. I guess I'm bored?
Jeffrey Feldman | Posted 03.07.2008 | Media
The back-to-back media gaffes by Power suggest that the 'Obama-camp-in-crisis' narrative has taken root, at least for the moment, in the media.

Samantha Power won the Pulitzer for exposing the Clinton administration's monstrous indifference to genocide. For restating it impolitely on the campaign trail, she gets the boot.
Jon Robin Baitz | Posted 03.07.2008 | Politics
It is not outside the realm of possibility that Senator Clinton IS, in fact, quite literally somewhat monstrous. She and her team DO seem willing to stoop to "anything," as Ms. Power claimed.
Andy Borowitz | Posted 03.07.2008 | Politics
More "more work will need to be done" if the Illinois senator is to mend fences with the monster community, said the executive director of the Monster Anti-Defamation League.
