A few things that caught my attention recently:
- Wonkette makes a good point here about Pat Robinson’s recent reference to political correctness. Robinson is a lunatic and not directly relevant here in Europe, but the notion that rejecting political correctness necessarily sanctifies their vitriol is widespread among far right nuts. I seem to recall even our own Geert Wilders ranting on about the evils of political correctness.
- Matt Yglesias draws attention to Robert Kaplan dissing us Europeans. I guess we should be offended.
- You’ve probably read this story elsewhere, but nobody tells it as well as The General. Check the comments.
- If my plants could get on the internet, they would have ordered this by now.
Enjoy.
