Re: Utopia and Its Discontents
I'd just like to say that I enjoy Reihan's diavlogs, and I appreciate his lighthearted attitude. So keep doing your thing, Reihan.
It looks like the pro and anti folks both want more...

Re: Free Will: Who's being protected?
Well, one could make the argument that the inheritors of an artist's estate should benefit from the continuing popularity of that artist's work. And we do have laws about the length of time after...

Re: The Subprime Solution
Other than the fact that the example Prof. Shiller gives and the Obama tax plan both deal with low income people, exactly what is the connection? Are you saying that the Obama advisors are still...

Re: The Week in Blog: Always On Message
I'll admit that I don't fully understand all the proposals, but I did read that NYT piece. What is the difference between Conn's proposal and the new Treasury plan being discussed? Is it just that...

Re: Performed Intelligence
"Ad hominem" is tricky in politics because there is a way to go too far in attacking the person. Certain attacks on character or on family cross the line. However, you can't separate the person from...

Re: Songs of the Bushmen
Can you say straw-man?
How 'bout we change this up to say that it happened in the late 1940's (when McCain was a child) and that by the time, oh say in the late 70's, McCain met him when they...

Re: Breaking the Narrative
I didn't find Byron all that bad. There was this (http://bloggingheads.tv/diavlogs/14613?in=17:37&out=18:14) where he does criticize McCain a little. Which is more than, let's say, Matt Lewis would...

Re: Can You Spare Some Change?
Maybe he's just an optimist, but Matt's MO seems to be "admit no weakness." Even when he's saying that he expects to be upset by some things that a McCain administration would do, he makes it sound...

Re: You Can't Prove Gut
U.S. Census to the rescue! Apparently ~74% of Americans are white, ~16% of whites over the age of 25 do not have a high school degree, so ~11% would be "uneducated white people" if I'm doing my math...
