Three For The Price Of One Blogosphere Post

#1: From Ann Althouse… “I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’m a political moderate. More than any ideology, I care about rational discourse. In the year that I’ve been blogging I’ve taken a lot of different positions, some left and some right. What I’ve noticed, over and over, is that the bloggers on the […]

Greetings From A Land Of Bent And Broken Things By Greyhawk

Some of you may have noticed I didn’t post my own thoughts on (Sunday’s) elections. My reason is simple: it wasn’t my day. I watched through tearing eyes.

Spelling It Out By Mike Hendrix

Okay, look, I’ll put this as simply as I can: 1) Condi didn’t lie to anybody, and neither did Dubya. Lying implies both knowledge and intent, and neither has been remotely established, nor will they be, because they do not exist. We know that Saddam at one time had WMD’s; there is simply no argument […]
