WHAT'S WRONG WITH UNITED 93? JUST ASK DANA
The overwhelming disappointment of United 93 seems to be that it couldn't or didn't evoke some sort of politic statement that would correlate with the personal tendencies of the critics.
It's sort of like looking for a political statement in a train wreck. The train, the tracks and the signals have no politics. Who's fault is it if it generates no political statement ? Simply, it's those who look for one.

WHAT HAPPENS IF A BLOGGER GAVE A CARNIVAL AND NOBODY CAME?
Perhaps if they changed their name to "Free Radicals" we could all change our diet and they would go away.
On a bit more serious note, any group of "people who self-define" are, by nature, as manageable as a herd of cats. I mean, you can't really make real "non-conformists" conform.

TRIAL BALLOON FOR IRAQ PULLOUT?
Obviously, either the campaign to impeach Bush and Cheney must be ahead of schedule, or the Telegraph is uttering nonsense.
You make the call.

A SLAVISH DEVOTION TO SUPERFICIALITY
I have to take issue with the characterization of those who have problems with Andrew Sullivan.

I think that many readers, like myself, just got tired of filtering out all the "gay-marriage" crap. When the crap-to-interesting ratio exceeded 50%, many fled as their time is much more valuable, and better spent elsewhere.
There is one obvious solution to this issue.
The image and likeness of all Islamic figures should be banned.
I'd like to the see my friends on the Left wrap their brains around this idea.
