Big Government GOP (The Corner)

Thu, 26 Jun 2008 20:24:31 GMT

There was a chance that the Internet gambling ban might be scrapped or diluted. That chance has now gone (at least for this year) thanks to a vote in the House Financial Services Committee, and who's to blame for that?

Peter King: Ohio University Commencement Address (SI.com)

Mon, 16 Jun 2008 16:28:12 GMT

ATHENS, Ohio -- Quite a daunting task, giving a commencement speech. Even more daunting to do it twice. Because Ohio University, my alma mater (Class of '79), can't fit all of its 3,300 grads and families into the on-campus arena, the commencement is done twice -- at 9:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. So my 11 minutes of wisdom to the highly impressive class of '08 (and I mean that; OU graduated a bunch of very...

Harrison, of course, played great defense on Tyree...
