Giuliani in 2012?

The New Neo Posted on January 21, 2011 by neoJanuary 21, 2011

I’m really not sure how I feel about this. I supported Giuliani initially in his 2008 run. But I would dearly love to see someone fresher and younger come forward to get some energy into the Republican Party’s presidential campaign. … Continue reading →

Clarification: my opinion about Obama’s Tucson speech

The New Neo Posted on January 17, 2011 by neoJanuary 17, 2011

From the evidence of certain comments and a couple of emails I’ve received, it seems I didn’t make myself clear enough when I first discussed Obama’s Tucson speech—even when I expanded on my position here and here in the comments … Continue reading →

The hard left in action: the ends justifies the means

The New Neo Posted on January 14, 2011 by neoJanuary 14, 2011

The hard core left is pragmatic about truth, but you don’t often see that fact revealed as honestly as it was in a comment I found at TNR, made by “Virginia Centrist” at 10:17 AM on 01/12/2011, in response to … Continue reading →

Why has the left’s mask slipped recently?

The New Neo Posted on January 13, 2011 by neoJanuary 13, 2011

In the wake of the Tucson shooting, commenter Occam’s Beard made these remarks: The question is why they’re letting the mask slip now, instead of doing the Walter Cronkite and continuing to hide their true views. Perhaps [they] are doing … Continue reading →

The Giffords shooting and mere words

The New Neo Posted on January 11, 2011 by neoJanuary 11, 2011

I’ve got a new article up at PJ entitled, “Politics and the schizophrenic’s language: do mere words have the power to ignite acts such as Saturday’s shooting?” Comment here, comment there, comment wherever you wish.

The new Congress has plans

The New Neo Posted on January 3, 2011 by neoJanuary 3, 2011

The House will take up the issue of repeal of HCR. It’s an act of theater, because Obama has veto power and would almost undoubtedly use it. And repeal is doomed in the Senate, anyway. But it’s nevertheless a good … Continue reading →

Is Krauthammer right?

The New Neo Posted on December 24, 2010 by neoDecember 24, 2010

Charles Krauthammer seems to think that the legislative achievements of the last couple of weeks—the tax “cut”[sic] deal , the repeal of DADT, and the approval of START—have changed Obama’s fortunes with the American public, and that the playing field … Continue reading →

Let’s do away with the filibuster, saith the Democrats

The New Neo Posted on December 23, 2010 by neoDecember 23, 2010

This is exactly what I’ve been anticipating, ever since I realized that the Senate would probably remain in Democrat hands. William Jacobson at Legal Insurrection says not to worry. But I’m hardly as sanguine as he on the possibilities for … Continue reading →

Why has the lame duck session “produced” so much?

The New Neo Posted on December 22, 2010 by neoDecember 22, 2010

Ezra Klein and I are asking essentially the same question, although we’re phrasing it a bit differently. He wonders why the lame duck session been so “productive;” I’m not so sure I’d use that particular word. However, we’re in agreement … Continue reading →

The lame duck that wouldn’t die

The New Neo Posted on December 18, 2010 by neoDecember 18, 2010

The WaPo offers this fascinating glimpse into why the lame duck sessions of Congress have continued despite the obvious need to stop them. It turns out that the 20th Amendment (passed in 1933) was intended to do just that when … Continue reading →

The Dream Act dies–for now

The New Neo Posted on December 18, 2010 by neoDecember 18, 2010

It was only a Dream. Depending on the source, articles describing the defeat of the Dream Act refer to the young people involved as either illegal immigrants (correct) or undocumented immigrants (annoying euphemism). The measure, which would have granted citizenship … Continue reading →
