Justice Crichton is one of the three in dissent. I respect his levelheadedness way more than that of some of the justices in the majority, but in this case he is wrong. The problem with his opinion is he leaves people without hope or remedy for the mess to which they find th...

St. George should look to St. Louis as a guide. The inner city of St. Louis is your typical Democrat run pig sty, but the county is full of small incorporated towns--Ladue, Clayton, etc. These towns are beautiful and beautifully run.
The tax burden is much less there because everyone contribu...

1986 - Anthony Wilson scrambles for the loose ball, throws it up off the glass at the buzzer to defeat a huge favorite Memphis State to advance to the Sweet 16. What an exhausting, exciting game for a team that went 9-9 in SEC play and eventually made it to the Final Four. ...

Ole Miss and Alabama have been LSU's greatest, most intense rivals over the last 75 years. Others temporarily may have offered bigger games (Auburn for a brief stretch), but over the long haul the teams that most motivate our fan base are Ole Miss and Alabama.

The U.S. Supreme Court's decision has been cast as a pro versus anti abortion question. It was not. The question of whether abortion is legal is now where it should have been, with the states. Roe v. Wade was a bastardization of the U.S. Constitution.
