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

Scooter Libby

DateFriday, October 28, 2005 at 08:25PM

Even if I didn't know people who know Scooter Libby and know him to be a man of integrity and principle, I would wonder about the guilt of someone who was triangulated into this whole non-crime by Judith Miller and Joe Wilson, who are still employed (in the first case) and still out of jail (in the second case.)  They would be "Miss Amok" (her employer's appellation, not mine,) and The Serial Liar Who Is So Discredited Even Kerry Had To Fire Him.  Oh, I'm sorry, the editors say I have to refer to him as "Former Ambassador."  Another distinguished State Department employee, in the tradition of Alger Hiss.
