Bush backs proposed pro-life bills
President Bush supports congressional proposals requiring abortionists to warn some women that their unborn children will feel pain and banning adults from helping pregnant minors cross state lines to circumvent abortion laws requiring parental notification, the White House said last night.

The corollary to the Bush doctrine
by David Limbaugh
I happen to believe that President Bush's inaugural speech was both a very big deal and not that big of a deal at all, a classic paradox.

Sex Map Shows Chain of Almost 300 High School Lovers
The first "map" of teen sexual behavior gives new meaning to the old warning that you don't just have sex with a person, but with everyone that person ever had sex with, researchers said on Monday. They found a chain of 288 one-to-one sexual relationships at a high school in the U.S. Midwest, meaning the teenager at the end of the chain may have had direct sexual contact with only one person, but indirect contact with 286 others.

Branded for Life
What if a Familiar Name Becomes A Different Animal?
Think of IBM, and the image of a computer is liable to come to mind. AT&T? A phone. Toys R Us? Yeah, toys aplenty. Those are the associations that marketers have spent billions trying to hammer into consumers' brains through an unyielding deluge of television spots, print ads and billboards. But what happens when a company's business shifts and the brand needs to shift with it?

Many Faces of the Mac Mini

Stupid Blue States
People who vote Republican are stupid, the stereotype has it. As London's left-wing Daily Mirror tabloid asked in a front-page headline in November, "How could 59,054,087 people be so DUMB?" (Actually, according to David Leip's Election Atlas, the number of Bush voters is now 62,041,268.)
In an effort to counter this stereotype, OpinionJournal.com is looking for examples of blue-state stupidity, and our first one comes from an Associated Press weather story: "Baltimore transportation crews are set to lay down blue salt--letting residents know their streets have been plowed." John Kerry outpolled Bush 82.7% to 17.1%--a margin of 65.6%--in Baltimore, a city whose residents need saline assistance to figure out their streets have been plowed.
