Wow. This morning Google announced that it has launched a new feature on Google Scholar that makes it possible for anyone, anywhere, to do a comprehensive search of every published court decision in the country. This is huge...
Patrick at Popehat has the goods on why even pro-gun control liberals ought to be rooting for Alan Gura in the latest 2nd Amendment case that he is bringing before the Supreme Court. I...
Time for some blawging. Rod Dreher makes the case, once again, that same-sex marriage presents a unique and unavoidable conflict that will drastically undermine religious liberty in this nation, concluding that the “conflict between gay...
The more that I think about it, the more that I think the “metrics” school of sports analysis is the perfect example for understanding the limitations of insurgent intellectual movements. I have never known...
Roger Cohen is on board with ending the Peace Process and moving to a de facto ceasefire (though admittedly still pretty awful ) in Israel-Palestine. Money quote:
Predictably enough, Obama has attracted some nonsensical criticism for reiterating his support for the “one-China” principle. So it’s worth remembering that Bush not only opposed formally recognizing Taiwanese independence, he was actually criticized for...

This story of Gadhafi inviting 200 young Italian women to his house and then trying to convert them to Islam only works in a world in which Gadhafi exists. I can guarantee you that...
Rob Malley and Hussein Agha have a very thought-provoking piece in the New York Review of Books (h/t Marc Lynch) concerning the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. In effect, they argue that the peace process is...
Since President Obama bowed to the Japanese Emperor, thereby signaling the reversal of the victory of WWII and the domination of Japan over the US (Michael Crichton was right after all!!!!), I for one,...
Defending Bill Belicheck’s indefensible decision to go for it last night on fourth and two seems to be becoming a movement and gathering steam. It’s driven, I think, by sports contrarianism, but never mind...
Did anyone catch the AMC remake last night? How was it? I just found Wired’s “Prisoner” appreciation and McGoohan obituary, and I’m curious to know how good the reboot is.
Here’s a fascinating breakdown of China’s ethnic and cultural divisions.
Unlike John Hinderaker, I would be very pleased if Obama expressed regret for Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I don’t foresee this happening, but I am always amazed by people who just assume that leveling two...
