Inconceivable, or Some People Write What I Think
It must be mind control or ESP or something, because I've come across some blog posts I could have written. If I had the time and talent, that is.
I know he's "the dean" of political pundits, but Geitner's title sums up my feelings: Broder, Slow On The Uptake.
The next post takes more than just the title, but it too sums up my take on a lot of NGOs, not just Amnesty International. Yep, according to AI, the US is the worst offender when it comes to undermining the rule of law and international relations.
I've said this before, I'll say it now and later -- I think the children, grown or not, of politicians should be off limits to attacks. Just because you don't like their parents doesn't mean you should go after the kids. Period. Left, Right, St. Looney-Up-The-Creek doesn't make any difference. Ted Barlow agrees with me. And as I would say about anybody else, if somebody says something stupid, mock the stupidity of the remark, not the person. Yeah, I know, I'm no fun.
Yes, we really do need a whole channel devoted to gays and lesbians, asJoe Carter points out. I mean, it's like gays and lesbians are currently invisible on TV, unlike honest businessmen.
Clayton Cramer solves a conundrum that bedevils some reporters: how does the crime rate fall while prison populations increase? For those of you who are puzzled as well, I'll let Mr. Cramer explain it to you.
