Today is the day when Britain steps back from the brink 1, when we confront the bills from a decade of debt. A day of rebuilding when we set out a four-year plan to put our public services and welfare state on a sustainable footing, reform is one of the guiding principles of the spending review, and so too is fairness. Let's be clear, there is nothing fair about running huge budget deficits 3, and burdening future generations with the debts we ourselves are not prepared to pay.
Just over a week after a federal judge ordered the military to stop enforcing "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell", recruiters have complied.

The wife of the Supreme 5 Court justice Clarence Thomas is asking for an apology from Anita Hill, a woman who accused Thomas of sexual harassment 6 during his confirmation 7 hearings in the early 90s. Here is the message. She says,"Good morning, Anita Hill. It’s Ginny Thomas. I just wanna to reach across the airwaves and the years and ask you to consider something. I would love you to consider an apology some time and some full explanation of why you did what you did with my husband."

As Sue was pounding on some vacant cars, Tonya Jennings pulled up in her Ford’s Explorer.
"Came up,jumped up on top of my Explorer,looked through the window, got on top, started punching the sunroof.”
Tonya ran to safety, and good thing she did because look closely, Sue was about to show everyone how dangerous she is, claiming onto the police car. The police officer jumping in for protection. And Pawl Sue smashes the window.
