David Brooks sexually harassed by G.O.P. Senator?
Early on in the video: H/T Politico.
Right-wing identity politics
Victor Davis Hanson hits hard at Sarah Palin’s liberal attackers today, launching the usual and undoubtedly often justified accusation that they have been driven to a state of frenzy by her anti-elite lifestyle. But Hanson, for whose intellect, learning, and … Continue reading
When liberals distrust science
Pew has a new survey which compares the attitudes of scientists with the general public. Nothing too surprising. Scientists are secular, liberal, and support funding for science and think that science is awesome! On some of the issues where scientists … Continue reading
Politics, education & wealth
