Lanny Davis, a former Clinton hack, seems to have it right on the Plame/Wilson affair . . . which is refreshing (but demonstrates that he was simply a tool in the Clinton White House).
“The indictment against Lewis Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney’s chief of staff, by the special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald presents a challenge in

This website, called Truthmapping.com, advertises itself as “a tool to elevate debate,” and I agree. It is an interactive site that uses rules of logic to arrive at sound conclusions. This quote on the site well states the efficacy of logic for arriving at truth in a debate:
“Truth will not break, like a bubble, at [...]

Two ironies jump out to me: first, PFAW [...]
John Derbyshire (yes, he’s originally from Britain) has written a great article on child-rearing in the age of Madonna as supernanny. I particularly was interested in the part contrasting the experiences of today’s children with their much-less-unsupervised lives of yesteryear.
Another attorney weighs in on the faux CIA “leak” scandal.
The definitive article on this Faux Scandal is one by Mark Levin.
Lt. Gov. Michael Steele of Maryland has announced his GOP candidacy for U.S. Senate, and he quoted these inspiring words from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.:
