Rich Lowry makes a great point here: I missed this Rod Dreher post from the other day, a defense of a more thoughtful conservatism that includes this gem: “Limbaughism sounds a lot like Leninism.” Why is it that the conservative bloggers who make so much of how they prize civility and modulation can’t help throwing [...]
Food for thought from Phillip Klein: So, the important thing is not whether or not Limbaugh himself can attract moderates to the party (he is not a candidate last I checked), but whether, at some point in the future, a party built on conservative principles can win a majority again. That’s the essence of Rush’s [...]
Matt Frost offers insights into both blogging and Facebook: A good blogger lives in constructive fear of two things: writing for everyone, and writing for no one. Recognizing that your boss, your kids, or even your future self will be able to read your work long after you’ve written it should impose some temperance and [...]
I have been playing around with a new WP plugin called Twitter Tools. I am hoping to use it as an easy way to add content to the sideblog. After some initial problems, I think I have worked out the kinks. The basic idea is to use Twitter, Twit This, and Twitter Tools to easily [...]
Brian from MGoBlog offers insight into football and a little humor in reacting to Michigan’s win over Minnesota: Football, though… in football inexplicable things happen on a regular basis and they’re all gussied up to look like Flat Out Heart. You might think that, eventually, close observers would figure out this tendency and start saying [...]
Just came across this Jim Lindgren post at The Volokoh Conspiracy on Obama. The conclusion is rather fascinating and thought provoking: People should not confuse Obama’s personality with his political orientation: by personality, Obama is the most reasonable, thoughtful, moderate person on either national ticket. He is definitely NOT an ideologue. Yet by political orientation, [...]
Sad, but true: Any attempt to list the full dossier of Michigan errors over the past few weeks would provoke a cascade of emotions from the reader starting with rage and ending with full-bore ennui. Along the way we’d touch grim sarcasm, depression, contempt, fatalism, resignation, dread, and a whole host of other things that [...]
OK, after much mucking about I finally decided what I am going to do with this blog. I am not going to syndicate the content from my other blogs. Instead, I am just going to use this as a more personal blog. I will post about sports, family, culture, and whatever else strikes my fancy. [...]
I wanted to make you aware of a new blog: I know you are probably thinking that the last thing the world needs is another political blog. But it is my hope that the focus of this particular blog will be helpful (not to mention interesting). Here is how I laid it out in the [...]
I have decided to experiment with using software to import the blogs I post elsewhere into this blog. So KH Dot Com will essentially be the place you can read everything I blog (or nearly everything). That way you can read it all in one place. If you want individualized content you can go to [...]
