Point well taken….
By David Frum: Palin supporters have constructed an alternative reality in which their heroine is wildly cheered by the American yeomanry, and despised only by a small coterie of sherry-drinking snobs. No contrary evidence, no matter how overwhelming and uncontradicted, can alter this view: not the collapse in Palin’s support

Tomorrow, I will update the links here-a long overdue task, as many have gone away-or changed names. And sadly, I will have to banish one particular link, for not having the common decency to link to me-even though he once did. I've struggeld with keeping the link here-because there are

The tragic events at Fort Hood, happened as I was in transit last Thursday. I've been going back and forth as to whether to write about it-and indeed what to write. First of all-I have found myself pretty saddened by much of the reaction of the news and the blogosphere-who
