		<description>Yes, nick, it does.  Questioning either of them Hurts America; questioning both Emboldens Terrorists.  If you question a third right-wing BS artist (apologies to artists), you&#039;d raise suicide bombers from the dead.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;I don’t really see the problem with Goldberg’s comment.&lt;/i&gt;

Me neither. It&#039;s the wage he earns for making it that chafes. 

Which raises an interesting moral question: should one be more offended by Goldberg being paid by a loss-making private operation to produce lazy unresearched shite, or by the Perfesser producing his lazy unresearched shite in spare time, albeit with the healthy subsidy that comes from tenure granted by a public university? And does the fluctuation in my thinking on the matter have any wider significance on the economy?</description>

		<description>&quot;I’m going to have to invoke the doctrine of double effect.&quot;
Posted by Belle Waring

Actually it&#039;s a triple effect, since there were mentions of Goldberg, Reynolds and Kaus, but your confession is acepted anyway :)</description>

		<description>Now I see in the context of Bush and Clinton presidential dynasties, Instapundit endorses Prof. Bainbridge

&lt;em&gt;[Bainbridge] Perhaps it really is time to rethink how we select political leaders, so as to get back to the old model of citizen-legislators. Term limits, anyone?&lt;/em&gt;

&lt;em&gt; [Insta] Perhaps it is.&lt;/em&gt;

This, in the aforementioned context, of an already term-limited US presidency.  Heh Indeed.</description>
