1. "Bullies’ Overreach" Obama's desperate attempt to silence criticism.
Representative Sample: As surely as Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton allowed their personal flaws to erode the office of the presidency, Obama seems bent on allowing his own flaws (thin-skinnedness, hubris) to do potentially grave damage to the office as well. And over what? Not some grand policy matter or some key personnel matter, but over the desire to exclude a news network that has criticized him.
2. "“Why Don’t We Fix the Two Public Options We Have Now instead of Creating a Third One?”" Then we wouldn't be able to create a gigantic new government bureaucracy.
Representative Sample: That sensible — and hopefully not rhetorical — question was posed by Democratic Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA) on National Public Radio
3. "Skepticism, belief revision, and science" Some interesting points.
Representative Sample: If you did believe that skeptics should only believe conclusions which are reached by scientific methods, that would be a belief that is not reached by scientific methods.
4. "Fighting The Wrong War" Are we targeting the right enemies in Afghanistan?
Representative Sample: in Afghanistan, the Taliban are not the main enemy; the drug gangs are. Without the drug money, the Taliban become a troublesome Pushtun faction, not a mercenary military power that seeks to run the entire country again.
5. "TV boycott suported by… Tommy Smothers" Penn Jillette finds out first-hand that leftists only believe in free speech if you agree with them.
Representative Sample:I remember when the Smothers Brothers were for free speech.
I guess the only speech Tommy Smothers supports now is yelling at people he disagrees with.
