Today's Boston Globe articles

1. Arizona Immigration Law: http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/editorial_opinion/editorials/articles/2010/05/16/to_protest_ariz_law_baseball_should_move_all_star_game/

A commendable option by MLB against an unpopular law. Removing the All Star Game will have a greater impact on the state and its economy than any other single boycott.

2. Schools and Religion: http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2010/05/16/liberal_grit_in_the_fight_for_school_choice/

I agree: supporting vouchers is the right position, and their effect in fostering religion is at most incidental. The Supreme Court ruled correctly in Zelman.

3. Kagan Nomination: http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2010/05/16/the_effort_to_out_kagan/

Yes, let's forget about whether Kagan is possibly a homosexual. It's more important, and certainly a hefty task, figuring out her judicial philosophy.

4. Business Ethics: http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/ideas/articles/2010/05/16/executive_honor/

Business managers need to realize that they need to balance competing interests, and profit should not be the only end. This oath may be helpful and should be tried in more business schools.
