Under The Marble Arch
“Seeing what isn’t there is half the job of being on the Left. The other half is changing what isn’t there through costly, intrusive, and ill-conceived initiatives (save 10 percent for keeping Charlie Rangel out of trouble).” -Abe Greenberg, October 9, 2009

Philosopher's Corner

"With their memories of the sixties, when to be young was very heaven, they still believe that an oppositional stance in pursuit of perfection is virtuous in itself—indeed, is the prime or sole content of virtue. And it is this belief that renders them interesting to Hollander, for it makes genuine moral reflection about the nature of various governments and policies impossible. It transforms merely personal discontents into matters of supposedly great general importance."

-Theodore Dalrymple on Paul Hollander: The Only Superpower: Reflections on Strength, Weakness, and Anti-Americanism

We were wrong.  OK, we admit it. we said that the death toll for Katrina wouldn't top 1200.

Officially: 972 in Louisiana (no breakout for New Orleans proper), 221 for Mississippi, 11 in Florida and 2 in Alabama for a total of 1063. 

Well, will you look at that! We were right!  Whoopsie doodles!

 Dear Mr. Wolcott:

Please accept my  sincerest condolences for your loss.  It must be a grave disappointment to you and your fellow Democrats that the residents of the Democrat Party Slave Quarters, otherwise known as the 9th Ward of New Orleans, have managed to evade ultimate victim status and have lived to vote another day.  In red states like Texas.
