Luttwak on IraqI've been reading Edward Luttwak since Grad School. He is a very sharp analyst of power politics, but a bit uneven. He wrote the best book on strategy I have ever read (The Grand Strategy of the Roman Empire), but...New Republic Hits Daschle
The liberal magazine The New Republic hits Daschle on a big flip-flop: DASCHLE'S NEW STANCE ON SOX ISN'T THAT SPECIAL (INTEREST) I don't see any particular role for me as a lobbyist, former Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle told NPR...Evan Bayh
While Daschle will be speaking to the Iowa Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner in a few weeks, Evan Bayh will be speaking to the New Hampshire JJD dinner:If you happen to be a New Hampshire voter, lock your doors ... the politicians...Slap Shot

The kids over at Daily Kos are wondering about Harriet Miers' sexual orientation:She sure seems like a big ol' Texas lesbian to me. And he did pick a gay guy for Chief Justice....Second Brit Tornado
Rolling Stone & the Antiwar MovementBirmingham Hit by 2nd Twister in Year!
This is very unusual. First of all - about 80% of the tornadoes in the world occur in North America (mostly in the US and Canada). MOST of the rest of them are in China. Euro-twisters are quite rare, and it's even wierder for the same location to have two within a short period.
Here on the Northern Plains they are not that unusual, although of course they are not exactly welcomed, although they can give a good adrenaline rush when they do show up.
Rolling Stone is wondering if the anti-war movement is too fractured to be effective. Excerpt:But rather than centering the rally around vets like Gordon and family members like Palmatier and Frederick, organizers seemed intent on alienating them. Demonstrators carried papier-mache...More Miers Information: Withdraw the Nomination!
DEVELOPING: HIDDEN TESTIMONY REIGNITES MIERS FIRES
More information on Miers - and it's not anything that is reassuring at all.There's a lot of information on the SCOTUS confirmation on this site - it's definitely worth checking out.
H/T for this one to Laura Ingraham's site - which also has even more on the nomination.
Meanwhile, Ann Coulter also continues to be unimpressed with the Miers appointment in this post, and others.
There's a lot of other stuff out there on the problems with the nomination, ranging from Rush, to National Review Online, to Savage.
Enough already! The Chief has learned enough - what's needed at this point is a better appointment to the court. The short and long of it is that while Ms. Miers is an exemplary person in many ways - NOT for the SCOTUS. Best would be a new nomination, before Ms Miers and the President further embarrass themselves any further by pursuing this one.
