Highly Recommended Reading

I don't write much here on what other blogs say. I think I know most of the folks who read this bit of scribbling and they don't need me to link to my favorite liberal blog post of the day. However, Glen Greenwald is an excellent writer who blogs for Salon. He wrote today on how both the Bushies and some of the anti-Bushies oversimplify the world and the dangers of such simplification. It is an excellent introduction to his work and I want to recommend that you be willing to wait out any ad Salon pops up at you and read it: http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/index.html

I am teaching presidential elections today so expect a post on some of my observations on that race soon.
