Perspective:Ronald Reagan's biggest mistake finally retires
The fundamental goal of the next Supreme Court justice should be to create a record that would not inspire Sen. Chuck Schumer to say, as he did of Justice O'Connor last week: "We hope the president chooses someone thoughtful, mainstream, pragmatic -- someone just like Sandra Day O'Connor." That's our litmus test: We will accept only judicial nominees violently opposed by Chuck Schumer.

Why would we trade a system that has served us so well for one that has served others so poorly?''

Letters: Iraq; a third way out
Editor: On Iraq, the president and his administration prefer to present the American people with only two untenable and unpalatable alternatives. Abandon Iraq with our tails tucked between our legs, or continue fighting a costly, vain battle that will take the lives of thousands more young men and women and countless Iraqis for a vague and futile attempt to "make the world free for democracy."

Tiger a clear favorite to win British Open
PHILADELPHIA -- As the 134th British Open, golf's oldest championship, returns to the cradle of the game this week, the name of the winner remains as uncertain as the Scottish weather in which the tournament will be played.

New kids on the block at All-Star game
DETROIT (AP) -- Derrek Lee knows the All-Star game has a whole new look this year.

O'Hair gets first victory at Deere Classic
SILVIS, Ill. -- Sitting behind a trophy, his wife and in-laws in front of him, Sean O'Hair was very much a man at peace.
