Actually, this seems to be the basic need of the human heart in nearly every great crisis – a good hot cup of coffee. ~ Alexander King
Blue Crab Boulevard (Gaius) Bad Idea — “Whether the legislators agree with the policy or not, American policy toward Cuba has been pretty much the same since John Kennedy occupied the White House. It is not their place to circumvent that policy in this manner. If they want to change the policy, there is a well established method for doing so. It is called “passing a bill” and it is not rocket surgery.” [Heh. I love that last part. Jim]
Captain’s Quarters (Ed Morrissey) A Conspiracy To Defraud — “It’s become obvious that Nifong has gone out of control on this case, and someone will have to step in and stop him from doing any more harm to either the defendants or the community of Durham. Nifong has shamed himself, his department, and the state of North Carolina. At the least, he should lose his ability to practice law ever again.”
