…from 2007. A roundup by John Hawkins. He’s got them from both sides of the aisle, but the vast majority are clear products of Bush derangement.

The Need For Bureaucratic Agility
Bill Whittle has a long ode to John Boyd.
A lot of this theory applies to NASA as well. Unfortunately, space isn’t important enough to compel the government to do it well.
A Divider, Not A Uniter
Such is the low esteem of George Bush’s America in the rest of the world that Britain and France are fighting over which of them is our closest ally.
After decades of Anglo-French rivalry, in which France has vehemently deplored the global influence America and Britain have attained and what every president of France since Charles de Gaulle has described as “Anglo-Saxon culture,” Mr. Sarkozy claimed during his visit to Washington last week that France, not Britain, is now America’s best friend and partner.
Mr. Brown, who has been portrayed on both sides of the Atlantic as having distanced himself from America to avoid the charge against his predecessor, Tony Blair, that he was Mr. Bush’s “poodle,” fought back last night, claiming in a speech at a banquet thrown by the lord mayor of the city of London that the French president’s bid to usurp Britain’s traditional place alongside America would not succeed.
I hear the Democrat candidates bloviate on the campaign trail about how they’re going to “repair our relations” with the rest of the world, and wonder on what planet they’re living. Hilarious.
Ask Me No Questions
…and I’ll tell you no…well, you know the old saying…
Hillary! doesn’t seem to be on a listening tour this time around:
Iowa Falls resident Alene Rickels, 51, when asked her thoughts about the event, said:
Do What I Do, Not What I Say?
Did Mike Huckabee, aspiring to be the Nanny-In-Chief, have gastric bypass surgery?
It wouldn’t shock me. I see him as a Republican version of Bill Clinton, minus the womanizing (including the involuntary relations with women).
[Update on New Year’s Eve]
This seems to be a pretty good refutation of the speculation. Not that it makes me any more inclined to vote for a nanny, even one who follows his own advice.
Routing Around The Disruption
Fred Thompson bypasses the MSM:
I am not consumed by personal ambition. I will not be devastated if I don
Clinton vs. Giuliani
Intrade shows Clinton trading at about $0.67 on the dollar for winning the democratic nomination despite trailing Obama for winning Iowa and South Carolina primaries. Giuliani is leading trading at about $0.30 on the dollar for winning the republican nomination despite being behind in NH, IA, MI and SC.
Where Did The “Neocons” Go?
Michael Young is wondering:
…maybe it’s time to stop referring to the neocon policies of the Bush administration. The neocons are gone, many for so long that no one seems to remember their leaving. What we now have in Washington is a mishmash of old political realism and improvisation, topped with increasingly empty oratory on freedom and democracy. That should please quite a few of Bush’s domestic critics. He’s returned to the futile routine in the Middle East that they always urged him to.
Well, the anti-war folks are always fighting the last anti-war.
