Book du jour on right, with thanks to Theo.
Using artists for political purposes. Powerline. Darn greedy artists will do anything for a check. They are all filthy Capitalists.
I did not get enough out of Bertrand Russell's effort. Maybe this one is better, I will give it the old college try.
Send your kids to ACORN High School! They will learn how to exploit the money made by the producers of society! Who they hold in contempt! Perfect for arrogant, supercilious weenies!
Phi Beta Cons:
Derb's piece nicely supports my contention that only a very wealthy country could afford an educational system that costs as much and delivers as little as ours.
Insty on how to gain respect in the UK:
...should Christians start sawing off heads to gain some respect? Perverse incentives . . . .
Quoted at Q&O:
“Further, a perception that our resolve is uncertain makes Afghans reluctant to align with us against the insurgents.”
Duh.
Is Federal mandatory medical insurance Constitutional? It depends on the politics.
Glen Beck embarasses me but
But he also very often seems to be right (small r). Beck has been the first and, for quite a while, the only one to be assiduously connecting the dots between Obama, Ayers, the two Joneses and the rest of the post-sixties crew that seems to have never gotten over the Port Huron Statement, with the Chicago School of neo-Boss Tweed politics. These are dots that should have been connected by the mainstream media long ago, but, as we all know, they didn’t want to look at them. New Media hasn’t done a great job of connecting these dots either because, frankly, we don’t yet have the skills or manpower. But Beck is doing it. More power to him.
The obnoxious nanny state in New York.
Sweden is on fire, and the firemen can't help. They are afraid of the Moslem immigrants.
