  1. The NRA's off-target plan

    Theodore Roosevelt was appalled by the lack of firearms training within the constabulary when he was appointed president of the New York City Police Department Board of Supervisors, a rank now known as police commissioner.

  2. Republican fallacy: Average Joe is best served by Big Business

    Republicans make the claim that their party represents the concerns of average, hard-working, family-centered Americans. It is a curious claim, given that their party unfailingly opposes any measure that gives those average Americans a break.

  3. State of the Union: The not so bully pulpit

    Theodore Roosevelt, America’s 26th president, reveled in the platform the job gave him to comment on all matters great and small: “I have got such a bully pulpit!" he declared.

  4. The birth of the income tax

    This month marks the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 16th Amendment, which gave Congress the power to tax American incomes. Unlike the contentious congressional drama in passing the American Taxpayer Relief Act to avert going over the "fiscal cliff," the 16th Amendment was accorded little emotion when it received a thumbs-up from both houses in 1909.

  6. New Western governor sets his sights on climate change solutions

    When we were classmates at Ingraham High School in Seattle, Jay Inslee was quarterback of the football team and a key player on the state champion basketball squad. I was a fledgling cartoonist and editorial writer on the student newspaper. On Wednesday afternoon, as I watched Inslee shoot hoops with his buddies under the new backboard he had just put up on his garage, it struck me that some things have not changed. It was still basketballs for him, cartoons for me.

  7. Neo-Confederates in Congress resist a rapidly changing world

    Revolutionary changes are coming at us at supersonic speed, bringing new challenges that are existential and global. Yet our political system seems incapable of adapting to, or even fully acknowledging, those changes. Instead, the system is constricted by ideas and attitudes better suited to the 19th century.

  8. To avoid 'fiscal cliff,' our leaders need to be better than we are

    This being the Christmas season, I&rsquo;m going to give the nation&rsquo;s political leaders a little gift, an excuse for bringing America to the edge of a so-called&nbsp;fiscal cliff: They&rsquo;re only human.&nbsp;

  9. Romney and Obama forced to get personal at party conventions

    No one expected Franklin Delano Roosevelt to show his wheelchair to the nation and pepper his speeches with details about his battle with polio. No campaign strategist ever thought to have Pat Nixon come onstage to talk about the homey details of her married life with Dick. When Dwight Eisenhower was nominated, no one thought to testify to his qualities as a father and husband; what mattered was that he beat the Germans at Normandy.

  12. Patt Morrison Asks: Two from the 'typosphere'

    There'll be a pair of Pasadena institutions along Colorado Boulevard for New Year's -- the Rose Parade, and a company marking 100 years in business. Anderson Business Technology, nee Anderson Typewriter Co., has bucked two trends: It's been a one-family operation all along, and it's managed to leap from the age of slammed return levers and carbon paper to ctrl.alt.delete. Don Anderson and his son, David, are chairman and president, the second and third generations in the firm. Change has been crucial to their century of success, and yet a romantic roll call of anachronistic mechanical brands -- Royal, Underwood, Smith Corona, Olivetti, Sholes and Glidden, Hermes -- still connects the Andersons to the "typosphere," where poet Charles Bukowski's manual Olympia stars on a mouse pad, and composer Leroy Anderson's <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GCBJPDCUF0">whimsical "The Typewriter"</a> stars on YouTube.
