When civil war broke out in Syria, the good guys were easy to
spot: They were the soldiers who deserted Bashar Assad’s military
after refusing orders to fire on peaceful protesters. But while
orders to commit war crimes are as legitimate as any casu...
Around 1770, John Singleton Copley composed a portrait of Ralph
Inman. The hardly starving artist, by virtue of immortalizing
upper-crust Bostonians like Inman with his brush, had become

resemble the single-hued state politics of California. Oh, ther...
The Ranking Democrat of the House Oversight and Government
Reform Committee tried to disrupt the committee’s investigation of
the IRS scandal last night by releasing the full transcript of a
