Is Capitalism to Blame for Climate Change?When Bolivian President Evo Morales and Hugo Chávez of Venezuela took the stage at COP15, there was little doubt the pair were going to have some strong words for the international assembly--and they certainly didn't fail to bring them. But beyond the wild-eyed, rambunctious delivery of such sentiments as "rich nations are selfish," or they promote a "

An Open Letter to President Obama from Michael MooreDear President Obama, Do you really want to be the new "war president"? If you go to West Point tomorrow night (Tuesday, 8pm) and announce that you are increasing, rather than withdrawing, the troops in Afghanistan, you are the new war president. Pure and simple. And with that you will do the worst possible thing you could do -- destroy the

That means when judges issue opinions in legal cases, they often establish precedents that will guide the rulings of other judges in similar cases and jurisdictions. Over time, these legal opinions build, refine and clarify the laws that govern our land. For average
