• How Are You Going To Vote? (PunditMom)

  The pollsters and the media are trying to convince us that we’ve already made up our minds. Hillary and Rudy are “ahead.” Barack and Fred are in “second-place.” Edwards and McCain are “trailing.”

  Doesn’t all this sort of make you feel that the process is a fait accompli? Not one vote has been cast, yet so many commentators and news analysts are already talking as if it’s a foregone conclusion who the nominees are going to be.

  I actually heard Tim Russert say on the radio last week that the 2008 Presidential election was going to be over in two months! The implication being that once Iowa and New Hampshire are done voting, there’s no point in the rest of us showing up again until November!

  So as you are considering WHO you are going to vote for (please promise me you’ll vote), I’m curious HOW you’re going to arrive at your decision.

  Will you vote by consensus or by conscience?

• Talk about talk (Third World County)

  Many people exercise common sense when formulating their comments. I can appreciate that. Some exercise their sense of humor, and I can appreciate that, usually no matter how weird their sense of humor* may be. Others, and they are few indeed, actually learned in school or elsewhere how to make clear, reasoned arguments. Rare, and greatly appreciated. People I stand to learn much from.

  But some just have no business even having an opinion, because they are both too ill-informed and are idiots (usually, as I have said elsewhere, self-made idiots), unable to recognize the value (or even the existence) of arguments from facts or reason, taking their preconceptual biases as fact and building a “reality-based” fantasyland of idiotarian unreason on that shaky foundation.

• Sen. Leahy on the Mukasey Nomination (Buck Naked Politics)

  Nothing is more fundamental to our constitutional democracy than our basic notion that no one is above the law. This Administration has undercut that precept time after time. They are now trying to do it again, with an issue as fundamental as whether the United States of America will join the ranks of those governments that approve of torture. This President and Vice President should not be allowed to violate our obligations under the Convention Against Torture and the Geneva Conventions or disregard U.S. statutes such as our Detainee Treatment Act and War Crimes Act. They should not be allowed to overturn more than 200 years of our Nation’s human rights and moral leadership around the world.

• Show me some smarts ( pesky’apostrophe)

  See, if I were going to task a committee on finding out if abortion negatively impacts women…I probably wouldn’t start with the answer Blunt is hoping to get.  Rather, I would start with this: what impacts women more negatively - having an abortion or giving birth to an unwanted child.  And then you could also look at the impact on children of being born into a situation where they’re not wanted.  Were they kept or put up for adoption?  Did they get adopted or did they end up in the juvenile authority system?  Regardless of where they ended up, how did they fare against kids who were planned and/or wanted in terms of school, social skills, etc.?  You know, I’d try to make it focused on finding an answer to a question, rather than asking the questions to get a specific answer.
