• After Copenhagen II: Whither progressive politics?

  
  Larvatus Prodeo — Authority: 568
  A predictable response to the Copenhagen fail has been calls from Australian business for *even more* ‘compensation’ as a condition for continued support of the Rudd government’s ETS. I’ll save the domestic politics of the Copenhagen washup for a later post, but I think it’s also worth reflecting on what ...

• What Should We Expect When Expecting Health Care Reform?

  
  Indecision Forever — Authority: 534
  Yesterday, I mentioned that the left-wing blogoshereopolis is currently engaged in an actual adult-person kind of debate — i.e. one that does not involves neither ad hominem attacks nor crying on TV — over whether Americans should accept the warm, steaming pile of health care bill that Congress is serving us or ...

  2parse — Authority: 129
  I recently castigated Glenn Greenwald for the umpteenth time for distorting the world to fit his ideological lens. He, like a significant portion of the left, seems to have turned on Obama.
