Happy Birthday to Genevieve Bujold, 71.
And a bit of good stuff:
1. Jonathan Chait on Glen Greenwald.
2. Mark Kirk's return to the Senate, from Matthew Cooper.
3. And Seth Masket on convenient anti-majoritarianism.

I trust that Kirk enjoyed his socialized health care.
ReplyDeleteI thought that was pretty weak from Chait actually. Which is a shame, because his basic point is right.
ReplyDeleteActually my main beef with Greenwald is his terrible prose. Although that is typical of my kind of warrant-free-illegal-wiretapping-cheerleading, Geneva-Convention-flouting-abuse-enabling, mindless-tribalism-revelling-in mentality.

I love Seth Masket's post. Very few people care about democratic process as an end rather than a means.
ReplyDeleteThe people who follow politics the most are driven by passionate policy views that they think are necessary for a just society regardless of public opinion.
