Dr. Veith over at Cranach linked to a Washington Post column that notes that there is a pattern, dare he say, a liturgy, about the way politicians reveal their wrongdoing to the public.

YouTube has been hosting The Davos Conversation, where people submit videos answering The Davos Question:
What one thing do you think that countries, companies, or individuals must do to make the world a better place in 2008?

I took in a little Hannity & Colmes last night and saw Elisabeth Hasselbeck discussing the Imus firing. Video and other people’s commentary are available at Hot Air.
To my amazement I found myself agreeing with both Hannity and Colmes in my disagreement with Hasselbeck. Hasselbeck found the decision to fire Imus good while not saying [...]
