Morgan Spurlock relates a personal story that is one part confession, one part redemption and one part acknowledgment that we have a long way to go in dealing with man/relationship dynamics (let alone the rape and harassment culture).  Very few men are willing to admit what he has, and let's hope that this inspires others to do the same. Also, let's hope that his accuser (as well as others) get the justice and/or peace of mind they are seeking.

Democratic Underground explains how one conservative's comment (about anti-war supporters) suddenly became Congressional record and attributed to President Lincoln. Well, DU mentions a true quote from Lincoln addressing presidents and war powers, and the full story can be found here . As DU's EarlG puts it: "It turns out that the real quote by Lincoln expresses a completely opposite sentiment to the fake, pro-war quote dreamed up and bandied about by conservatives."
