View ArticleBin Laden Dead - Updated
I've already read cynical responses from the anti-Obama contigent (left & right wings) and I think they are missing the real point. Osama bin Laden is someone who declared war on the rest of...
View ArticlePanetta
The news tonight also puts a different light on some of the reshuffling of major posts. The move of Panetta from CIA to Defense makes more sense. If this was an intelligence victory, as seems to be the...

I am all about distinctions. It matters that we study differences between political actors and correctly identify points of congruence as assiduously as we try to separate the political world into the...
View ArticleGrocery Costs at Casa Anglachel
My take on the Iowa caucuses - nobody much likes anyone. The election in November will be for who is least detested by the general population. Meh. I've been keeping my grocery database for just over a...
