My and Ed's Peace Proposals

ED and I each have come up with a proposed plan for the cessation of hostilities between the Reagan Administration and our household. Since our plans differ in certain minor respects (Ed taking a somewhat tougher line), we offer both versions, in the hope that they may at least stimulate the Administration to consider negotiations toward ending the past six and a half years of drawn-out mutual aggression and mistrust. This is not a ploy or a farce on our part. We are even putting all our personal problems on the back burner while we press these initiatives.... My plan:

1.Immediate suspension of Elliott Abrams, who will then be reflagged as a Kuwaiti vessel.

2.Unconditional withdrawal of the Bork nomination; Bork allowed to head a Presidential commission on the colorization of film classics....

Ed's plan:

1.Ed given a line-item veto on Presidential rhetoric.

2.Immediate amnesty for Ed's mother, a political prisoner of right-wing mailing lists....

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
