Donald Luskin, in a LONG but entertaining fisking, takes on Michael Kinsley...
Political Wire has a Mary Beth Cahill quote I can actually agree with...
Mickey Kaus is on fire today. First he just demolishes the New York Times for allowing secondhand gossip about Bernard Kerik's sex life after he withdrew his name from consideration for a cabinet post. Given this new benchmark, Mickey is just sure the Times will apply the same standards to a Democratic presidential candidate whose name starts with an H and ends in -illary. Then, Mr. Kaus goes to town on the oft-mentioned Peter Beinart piece that argued for a more muscular Democratic response to terrorism combined with a take-no-prisoners push for gay marriage. Kaus wonders when gay marriage became an absolute "must" for Democrats, and concludes:
I don't see why we can't have a Democratic party that openly a) refrains from force-feeding gay marriage to the public b) has room in it for patriotic Iraq War skeptics and c) as a consequence of a) and b) is better positioned to wage an effective military and ideological battle against Islamic terrorism.
