Comment on Note to Journalists: Who’s really an expert? by Paul Rosenberg

I’ll add that these categories may all apply to the same author. They certainly do for me. I’ve written books for almost all of the “name” publishers, self-published out of the local copy shop, and am now an Independent Publisher.

So, does the Times trust me, or not?

Comment on [Chapter 3.3] The Constitution and the Courts by R.C.

I had never thought about the idea that the House gets no vote in Supreme Court and Federal court appointments. I think Freed is right when he writes that the Constitution is designed with a deep distrust of the common people at its core. Seems to me that he’s laid bare a real weak spot in our system of government. I wonder what life would be like if the president’s Federal court appointments had to pass muster in both the House and the Senate. Now that Democrats control both sides of Congress, life sure would be better!

Comment on Democrats did not win the 2006 Election; Republicans lost by maria slochnik

I agree with Louis, but I also agree with Judah that Democrats lack a compelling vision for running the country better than the Republicans. And I agree that if the Democrats do not develop that vision, if they just keep talking about the same old issues without offering a new plan, they may not stay in power in 2008.

By the way, the headline got me to read the blog posting. Very provocative.

Comment on Democrats did not win the 2006 Election; Republicans lost by Louis

The author seems to hold a very different view of the election than most people. In my mind, the Democrats now control the House and Senate, so the Democrats won the election. Who cares how they won? Maybe the Republicans did blow it, big time, but I still say the Democrats won, big time.

Comment on Progressives and Libertarians — Unite to Defeat Bush on Nov 7 by Saheim Walace

I worry about the Republicans stealing the 2006 election next week. What’s the point of voting if the voting machines are corrupted? I suppose that if enough of us turn out to vote, we can beat the voting machine tampering, but I hope my vote is actually counted. I hope the exit polls match the results, at least approximately. If not, I may raise a big fuss, and I hope others do the same. Having two elections stolen from us was two elections too many, and we won’t be fooled again!

Wow. You go, Judhah! I’m forwarding this post to all of my friends. I thought libertarians were the foes of progressives like me, but now I realize that we share a common interest in liberty. Thanks for opening my eyes.
