A Melange of Today's Politics!

I'm playing catchup on a few valuable columns from end of last week:

George Will puts global warming in perspective in "Fuzzy Climate Math".

Liz Cheney puts San Fran Nans trip to Syria in perspective in "The Truth about Syria".

Jason Whitlock puts Imus and the attacking hoards into perspective in "Imus isn't the real bad guy" - the firat sentence of which summarizes his feelings: "Thank you, Don Imus. You've given us (black people) an excuse to avoid our real problem."

Thank God they avoid political correctness!

Correction (4/21/2007): it was pointed out to me that Liz Cheney is in fact the daughter of the Vice President and the WaPo chose not to point that out. Sorry for the confusion as I had earlier stated she was not related to the Vice President.

A Melange of Today's Politics!

Ruben Navarrette documents the collapse of the case against Alberto Gonzales.

The Washington Post, much to their credit, accurately critiques San Fran Nan's "...foolish shuttle diplomacy."

The NY Daily News analyzes the attitude of the 15 British hostages and makes an interesting, and in my opinion accurate, assessment of the event.

Interesting set of news items. What do they tell us?
