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

A Plethora of Popes

DateThursday, April 7, 2005 at 08:48AM

In the opening segment of Hardball with Chris Matthews,  CM, who is alive in Rome, had as his first guest a cardinal.  First question: " So Cardinal X, you knew the Pope personally.  What can you tell us about the pope, the one that just passed away?"

As opposed to all of the other popes who are still wandering the streets.

On the bright side, CM is looking quite a bit more "kempt:"  black suit, hair neatly combed and sprayed in place.  Looking very scrubbed, like Mom just put the finishing touches on him before Grandma's funeral.  Thanks, Mom.  Left to his own devices, Chrissy would probably opt for the Nordic sweater and there would go what was left of MSNBC's ratings.
