MARTIN BASHIR RESIGNED FROM MSNBC OVER HIS DISPARAGING SARAH PALIN COMMENTS

Although one wonders whether thereare any-honest-reporters-anymore,this [belated] split is

of-interest for two major reasons; first, it seems the good guysare flourishing [Laura Ingraham

Got Her Own Comic Bookand Glenn Becks new bookMiracles and Massacres: True and Untold

Stories of the Making of Americais required-reading @ Yale] while the bad guysare flailing

[zucker capitulated @ cnn as he Dissed Fox]. Meanwhile, BHO is desperate, as he is to beinterviewed by chris-matthews, who-once-begged-obama-for-his-orders-set-to-interview-prez

and who famously claimed BHO triggered a personalLEG THRILL;some view this asthe-latest-in-

a-string-of-panicky-decisions,whilekrauthammer appears bemused [after having admitted that

he disagrees-with-just-about-everything-he-thinks]. Illustrative of how tenaciously the lefties

keep trying to defend each other is this observation from an over-the-weekend talk-show:

WaPo columnist Dana Milbank commented thusly on MSNBC's Martin Bashir s

vile statements about Sarah Palin [advocating urinating and defacating into her

mouth because she compared debt to slavery] for which he apologized.

Milbank: And another thing, which is really quite different. Hewas making a very legitimate point about Sarah Palin.

Kurtz: Lets go over this for people who were not following the

this. Sarah Palin had given a speech for which she compared the

national debt and owing money to China to slavery. A lot of

people didnt like that. And, like I said in the beginning, it is fair

game to criticize Sarah Palin. But lets not mix words here. What

Bashir said was scripted, read with graphics that had to be

approved by other people at the network who suggested using

her as a toilet.

Dana Milbank: Yes, and I think the legitimate point that he was

making was that these slavery things are brought up too often

and this is how awful slavery is.

Continuing with the good-guystuff from the journalistic/academic/cultural perspective, note

that the constitutionality of Christmas is pretty-solid; that pope-francis continues challenging

assumptions, as heSneaks Out Of The Vatican At Night To Serve The poorand admits to having

beena club bouncer;thatWith bad grades and worst essay ever, JFK still got into Harvard;that

a teacher slammed scripted common-core lessons that must be taught word-for-word; that

David Horowitzdiscussed his new book (The Black Book of the American Left)with Jamie Glazov;

thatscientists are increasingly-moving-to a global-cooling-consensus(noting theUN-sponsored

Conference is about money, not Climate Change); thatPaul McCartney Concerts Are Trippy;thataCollege accused a black professor of racial harassment against white students(goose=gander);

and that the101 best-selling-books-of-all-timehave been compiled (Great Booksupdated).

For more than two centuries, our political life has been divided between a party

of progress and a party of conservation. In The Great Debate, Yuval Levin

explores the origins of the left/right divide by examining the views of the men

who best represented each side of that debate at its outset: Edmund Burke and

Thomas Paine. In a groundbreaking exploration of the roots of our political

order, Levin shows that American partisanship originated in the debates over

the French Revolution, fueled by the fiery rhetoric of these ideological titans.

Levin masterfully shows how Burke's and Paines differing views, a reforming

conservatism and a restoring progressivism, continue to shape our current

political discourseon issues ranging from abortion to welfare, education,

economics, and beyond. Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand

Washingtons often acrimonious rifts,The Great Debate offers a profound

examination of what conservatism, liberalism, and the debate between them

truly amount to.

Regarding the blind-so-far search for civilizations elsewhere in the universe [theGreat Silence],

its unclear whyif a multitude of civilizations are likely to exist in the Milky Wayno sign of

their existence (in the form of probes or spacecraftor sound, or UFOs) has been detected.

Scientists and critical thinkers (since Enrico Fermi first raised this question back in the 1950s)

have struggled to supply a host of inventive arguments to resolve the problem, and theorized

(with mixed reception) has been the claim that life is so rare, so widely distributed, and the scaleof the universe so immense, that the probability of contact or communication between any two

space-faring civilizations is almost non-existent (an outlook which makes intelligent life find

itself in a very lonely, sad and pessimistic state of affairs). As a result, it has been postulated that

sufficiently-advanced civilizations may leave Earths universe by relocating to black-hole-like

destinations [Transcension Hypothesis]. {Inclusion of this idea is to serve as mind-exercise.}
