Calling All Wingnuts

I went to an academic conference billed as “After the Bush Doctrine:  National Security Strategy for a New Administration” at the Miller Center For Government Affairs at the University of Virginia.  Attendees included David Brooks, David Broder, Bill Kristol, Robert Kagan, and Fareed Zakaria, amongst others.
The schedule was tight so it was difficult for me […]

Klein writes the following in an article titled, “Beware the Bloggers’ Bile“.
A reasonable reader might ask, Why are the left-wing bloggers attacking you? Aren’t you pretty tough on the Bush Administration? Didn’t you write a few months ago that George W. Bush would be remembered as one of the worst Presidents in history? And why […]

OK, so I was trolling around the nethersphere.  I had heard James Dobson had a radio show and I often thought of looking it up so that I may call in and chat a bit, but I never remembered to do it until now.
Well, when I went to look up his radio show, I ran […]

I called Drudge tonight…  It was my first time calling him and served as a kind of warm-up.  I’ve got lots of things I’d like to ask him…
Anyway, tonight was the night of the debates, so we talked about them - and agreed with each other.  Hillary showed a presence I hadn’t seen before…  it […]

A lot to improve on, but off the top of my head…
1) Never tell them what you’re doing.  Just do it.
2)  If possible, have someone else do the videotaping; work in teams of at least two.  If you piss one of […]

Bohannon had another wingnut on his show last night, this one from the American Enterprise Institute. As it happens, earlier today I got an email from a friend that alerted me to a piece in AEI’s magazine, The American.
In it, the author bemoans that white collar criminals are being treated like common criminals these […]

First, go watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGFVCgI15_Y
As many of you know, right now I live in Charlottesville, Virginia. It’s a unique state – you can’t help but to feel connected to the land and to other Virginians, even if you are somewhat of an interloper from New York. There’s a certain sense of being […]

He talks tough, but he’s chickenshit - and a chicken hawk.
He was berating anti-war folks for cheering on the new Democratic legislation that reflects the will (by a 2 to 1 margin) of the American people.  Michael Ware, one of the best reporters in Iraq, recently said that if we leave Iraq, we leave it […]
