David Bernstein makes some good points, but I think the real question is not, why should Larry Craig resign, but why shouldn’t most of the Senate? Of course, I’ve been asking that question for years.

American is gone, but Hillary! (and Bill) will bring it back. Can’t wait.

[Update a minute later]

I loved this comment:

Maybe she means the American people will get their silverware back.

If the global warming evangelists had the slightest sense of irony, they’d never even attempt things like this. They have no concept of what laughing stocks they make of themselves.

I would ask him to forgive me for taking great pleasure in this. Guess that’s what schadenfreude is all about.

…to hear that Venezuela’s currency is collapsing. Such are the wages of socialism. No doubt he’ll blame it on George Bush.

Let’s hope that it leads to the collapse of Hugo’s government. I would think, at a minimum, that it bodes well for lower oil prices, because he’s going to have to start selling it off faster to prop up his national shell game.

Pete Seeger has (finally) denounced Stalin. And written a new song about it.

[Update on Monday morning]

More Pete Seeger discussion here. Some people don’t think that he deserves as much credit as he’s getting for denouncing Stalin, when he still refuses to denounce communism itself. I think they’re overexpecting a very old dog to learn a new trick.

From cutting and running:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has backed down from demands for a withdrawal of our troops in Iraq by next spring.

Selling voters on cut and run was always tough, but now a new UPI/Zogby Poll finds that 54% of Americans believe the Iraq war is not lost.

Beyond the achievements of our forces, the public is obviously impressed that Iraq’s five top political leaders have agreed on a series of compromises, including oil wealth distribution and provincial elections.

Well, that’s what happens when you govern by poll instead of principle.

Some thoughts about Republican “sex” scandals.

Of course, the Democrats will just point to this as evidence that Republicans have “hang ups” about sex.
