In praise of duct tape. And for sportsmen, there is real Duck Tape too.
Michelle's Headline of the Day yesterday: AP: Clinton vows to block bill criminalizing illegal immigrants. Hey, Barrister - how about a Fallacy of the Week on Double-Speak?
What I wonder is what that would mean for all the folks who come here legally, with Green Cards, etc.? Part-Time Pundit has a Guard the Borders Blogburst.
From the Brussels Journal, another obituary for Old Europe:
Europe’s current problems are entirely self-inflicted. This does not mean, however, that the result will be less catastrophic. By subverting the roots of its own Judeo-Christian culture – a process that started with the French Enlightenment (as opposed to the Scottish Enlightenment, which was not anti-religious) – a religious and cultural vacuum was created at the heart of European civilization. The collapse of faith in its own values has, not surprisingly, led to a demographic collapse because a civilization that no longer believes in its own future also rejects procreation. Today, a new religion and culture is supplanting the old one. There is little one can do about it, but hope for a miracle.
