        Combined PING to 2 ping lists

 

Nailed It !

This ping list is not author-specific for articles I'd like to share. Some for the perfect moral clarity, some for provocative thoughts; or simply interesting articles I'd hate to miss myself. (I don't have to agree with the author all 100% to feel the need to share an article.)

I will try not to abuse the ping list and not to annoy you too much, but on some days there is more of the good stuff that is worthy of attention.

You are welcome to browse the list of truly exceptional articles I pinged to lately. Updated on September 15, 2009.  on  my page.
You are welcome in or out, just freepmail me (and note which PING list you are talking about).

Besides this one, I keep 2 separate PING lists for my favorite authors Victor Davis Hanson and Orson Scott Card.  

 

 

  Ping ! 

Let me know if you want in or out.

[Tax-chick]

This is interesting, but I think he’s wrong. Statists do not seek equality: they seek power, status, wealth, and luxury for themselves, irrespective of the cost to others. In this model, the whole point is for the “rulers” to be above the “ruled” in every possible way.

I find a number of columnists make the same mistake, of accepting leftists’ egalitarian happy-talk instead of looking at how they actually live. It’s sweet to want to think the best of people ... no, I mean it’s dangerously naive, in this context.

Nailed it seems an understatement but it’s what we have to work with :)
