How Red Is Putin?

Sep 11, 2009
Maybe not as red as Drudge believes. A reader writes: And is Putin a red? Hmmm. Perhaps Putin is really a Neocon. The way the words "socialist," "communist" and "Nazi" are thrown around today (interchangeably at that!) show what an utterly debased...

Margaret Thatcher Did Not Want German Reunification

Sep 10, 2009
This is pretty staggering news: Two months before the fall of the Berlin Wall, Margaret Thatcher told President Gorbachev that neither Britain nor Western Europe wanted the reunification of Germany and made clear that she wanted the Soviet leader ...

Live-Blogging Healthcare Speech

8.34 pm. And now a touch of populism: It’s how everyone in this Congress gets affordable insurance.

The GOP vs Fiscal Conservatism

Sep 9, 2009
Charlie Cook and others are predicting a sea-change in public mood, with support for the GOP rising because of deficits. This strikes me as an amazing thing. It makes Charlie Brown, the football and Lucy look like the model of intelligent interaction...

Marriage In Vermont

Sep 2, 2009
by Patrick Appel I meant to mark the news yesterday but got distracted by other issues, so late last night I searched through the thousand or so blogs I read to see if I could find anyone making a substantive point about the first day of marriage eq...

A Poem For Sunday

Please bring strange things.Please come bringing new things.Let very old things come into your hands.Let what you do not know come into your eyes.Let desert sand harden your feet.Let the arch of your feet be the mountains.Let the paths of your...

The Role Of Animals

Mar 21, 2010
Dave Munger contemplates limits of animal personhood: So while many animals display remarkable cognitive abilities, there are clearly limits to what they can do. Does this mean they aren’t entitled to be considered “non-human persons?” Is it...

  The Daily Dish used to be blog that I would check several times a day, but no more. Andrew Sullivan seems to have taken personal umbrage at McCain's selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate, and the blog has devolved into a series of anti-Palin rants... For example on October 3rd there were 47 posts of which 24 were anti-Palin. At least if these were of the sort "this proves McCain's unfitness to be President" (he has a few of these) that would be OK, but they are about how she speaks, looks, everything she says and does, etc. Extremely tiresome. So, at this point it's a 5.0 Perhaps once the elections are past it will go back to its normal 9.0 level... Here's hoping!

  I like how Andrew interacts with his readers - the blog reads more like a big conversation. He often links to interesting stuff. Recently, though, seems like half of his 50ish posts a day are just slobbering over Obama.
