This week Joe Conason did a perceptive post for the National Memo on why the GOP breeds politicians like Todd Akin. "The embarrassing fall of Todd Akin," he writes, "should induce Republicans to confront their own responsibility for the low quality of politicians they are inflicting on us (and themselves). Having developed an extremist culture that encourages figures such as Akin to seek legislati

Unhappy returns – Romney, his taxes and why you keep finding blood in your underwear
I guess we’re never going to see Romney’s actual tax returns, never going to know the truth. We’ll have to take his word that he’s “never paid less than 13 percent in taxes.” Keep in mind that, for the vast majority of Americans who work for their money – folks who have to show up at a job every day and not just cash in on their investments – the 15 percent tax bracket kicks in at $8,500 a year i

Schooling in a Spot of Bother
In 1969, at the age of 36, after 11 years in publishing, I started teaching English at Holland Park, a London comprehensive school.

How To Succeed in Business Without Adding Value
