FIELDS: Little girls and 'Mad Men'
By Suzanne Fields - The Washington Times
Two little girls I know, age 6, showed up the other day at a public pool in Washington for a swim. They were excited by the prospect of escaping, if only for a little while, the heat pushing the thermometer close to 100. Alas, they were wearing the only bathing suits they had: bikini bottoms, no tops. No go, they were told by the pool manager. There was a dress code, and no one was allowed to dress "inappropriately in a way that may offend others." Did I say these were 6-year olds? Published 5:06 p.m. September 3, 2010 - Comments
NUGENT: Every day is Labor Day at Camp Nuge
By Ted Nugent - The Washington Times
Sadly, there isn't much to celebrate this Labor Day. With official unemployment hovering near 10 percent and real unemployment at around 15 percent, many fellow Americans are laboring just to find a job. With the job market so bleak, some Americans actually have quit looking. That doesn't even register with me. Published 5:16 p.m. September 2, 2010 - Comments

PERLEY: Mexico's migrant massacres
By Frank Perley - The Washington Times
The dream of a better life in America came to a terrifying halt last week for 72 Central and South American migrants trapped between gunfire and cinder-block walls. The scene of blindfolded and bound bodies strewn where they fell in an abandoned warehouse near the Mexican town of San Fernando exhibited a measure of cruelty beyond the comprehension of the civilized world.

TYRRELL: Field of study or field of play?
By R. Emmett Tyrrell Jr. - The Washington Times
What is your vision of a university? Is it the classic vision with profs walking the ivy-lined pathways, their books under their arms? Perhaps they wear tweed coats and smoke pipes - not the lady profs, but the men. The ladies dress accordingly, and maybe they smoke pipes. All pore over their books for hours and impart their knowledge to a select body of students. Published 5:10 p.m. September 1, 2010 - Comments

KUHNER: Bloomberg for president?
By Jeffrey T. Kuhner - The Washington Times
New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg says opponents of the Ground Zero Mosque are "un-American." The liberal billionaire vows to nix any compromise that would move the proposed 13-story Islamic cultural center and mosque to another location - one farther away from the site of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks at the World Trade Center.
