TEAM DEAN NASCAR RACING!!!

By Anonymous -
Color me blown the eff away!!! Veteran NASCAR driver and Dean supporter Brian Weber will be driving a Howard Dean decked out race car in the NASCAR Busch series, with matching racing suit and hauling truck to boot!!!



You can click the image to see the website and a much larger image of the awesome car! Only two comments: the car number should be 44 not 84, and Brian, Dean Nation is watching, holding our breath, and we are looking for a first place win!!!! Race on, brother!

UPDATE: I can't even express how cool this is, and how it will reach an audience we would have great difficulty reaching in any other fashion. If there is not a Dubya car already, look for one coming around the corner before long. It's also a bit perilous from a PR standpoint: here comes the NASCAR primary, uh, I mean, general election! Speaking of perilous, Dean better win the nomination or Brian is in deep shit, so let's work our butts off!!!

UPDATE DEUX: The Dean Team could use your support in various ways! Read the full press release, buy Team Dean related merchandise, or you can contribute. Further, check out the 2004 schedule and send them an e-mail if you'd like to volunteer and hel[ organize a Dean presence at the races when NASCAR comes to your city!!!

Julian Sanchez observed that this represented an epistemic closing of the conservative mind , a thesis that was validated by the retribution visited upon Jim Manzi for daring to suggest that conservatives will achieve more persuasion by using honest, strong arguments instead of weak, emotional ones. All of this has led John Quiggin at Crooked Timber to argue most wisely that as conservatism implodes, liberalism needs to find its own rationale that is more than just "not conservatism". Quiggin has a list of priorities for the liberal movement to address, and closes with the general plea, ...the left has to stand for something more than keeping the existing order afloat with incremental improvements. We need to offer the hope of a better world as an alternative to the angry tribali...

A fair solution to Jerusalem

By Aziz P. -
I remember reading one of the books by Tom Clancy in which Jack Ryan was credited with coming up with a solution for Middle East peace which was pointedly never actually detailed in the novel. It was just a way to give his character some foreign policy cred, but ended up like that mysterious suitcase in Pulp Fiction. I couldn't help but be reminded of that, though, when I read former New York mayor Ed Koch's innovative solution to resolving the status of Jerusalem . Instead of putting the hot-button issue of Jerusalem last on the agenda, the issue should be addressed first. If the Jerusalem question is solved, everything else should fall into place more easily. I believe there is a way to keep Jerusalem unified. I am talking not only of the old walled city, which is a very small part of the city of Jerusalem, but the whole city, east, west, north and south. [...] My suggestion is to situate the new Palestinian capital in that part of East Jerusalem that is occupied overwhelming...
