Arizona Democratic Rep: Yes To Boycotting Arizona, No To Boycotting Gaza
Posted on May 20, 2010Obviously he didn’t say both at the same time. But it’s well worth cataloging under what scenarios Democratic Rep. Raul Grijalva (AZ-7), a public servant of such creativity that he once used Native American tribal sovereignty as a pretext for... -
Illustrated Reminders About Creeping Government Control, Courtesy 1952
Posted on May 14, 2010I think I stumbled across these on some jaded advertising blog, where they were tee-heeing over the idea that individual entitlements might be a sop for broader government centralization. A predictably disapprobative academic article identifies the bottom one as having... -
Payoff: Obama Hands Unions “Most Significant” Victory So Far, Opens Door To Massive Airline Union Bullying
Posted on May 12, 2010Good. Because this is what you want with an industry that’s hemorrhaging money and just outright lost roughly 4 percent of its annual income because of incompetent EU regulators: In a major victory for organized labor, unions will have an... -
Watchers Council Results – Incoherent Hustlers
Posted on May 4, 2010Each week, in a contest for the week’s best post, each member of the Watchers Council nominates one of their own posts and a second from outside the Council for consideration by other council members. Usually I get around to... -

Posted on April 21, 2010We’re just a few minutes away from this week’s episode of One Jerusalem Radio’s TOCS, with tonight’s program turned over to a discussion of Jewish electoral politics. We’ll run down some of the recent polling data and election results, then... -
Merely Tweeted, “It’d Be Reassuring If…” Edition
Posted on April 19, 2010Highlights, lowlights, links, and whatever counts as the opposite of mindless utopian hope and change, via the Mere Rhetoric Twitter stream: It’d be reassuring if Obama came out as a radical hellbent on detonating US hegemony. At least we’d know... -
Source Of Vicious Right-Wing “Whisper Campaign” Against Elena Kagan Uncovered
Posted on April 17, 2010Like Domenech and Yglesias, 48 hours ago I would have sworn Kagan was out. Now I realize that I was the gullible victim of a right-wing “whisper campaign,” launched in its latest incarnation by wingnuts who infiltrated gay advocacy site... -
Oh My: World Jewish Congress President Ron Lauder Goes Nuclear On Obama
Posted on April 14, 2010Kind of a big deal, though I’m skeptical about how much it’ll matter in the long run. The bulk of American Jews are psychologically unable to give up on the Democratic Party, which is why that AJC poll has them... -
Academic Linguist: Palin Speaks Like A Cognitive “Toddler,” Linguistically She’s “A Child”
Posted on April 12, 2010Per IMAO, for a liberal, there is nothing more important than feeling you are smart. How do they help one another satisfy this absolutely critical, totally overarching need? It turns out, obnoxiously. There’s a certain species of liberal who seeks... -
Obama Wrecking US Diplomatic Credibility, Squandering Diplomatic Capital In The Middle East
Posted on March 29, 2010Barry Rubin (TOCS episode; full One Jerusalem Audio interview) asks why Israel should put any faith in future US promises, given the vehemence and brazenness with which this White House has thrown aside past assurances. Good question! Via friend of...
