This is a "Metablog." By that I mean I post the best from the blogs and the media on Politics and Foreign affairs. You are free to comment on it. My real name is Bill Millan.
This is for people who read the MSM and shake their heads at the bias. Each morning I post what amounts to a "national newspaper" of articles and comments from my "Eagle" [socially liberal/fiscally conservative] POV. Those here read what is of interest to them and comment on them from their POV. I describe in detail exactly how I do this here. Message 20865642 Please read it before posting.
I post most of the articles in "clumps" and suggest you check the thread in groups of 50 posts if you are only interested in what I am posting. That way you can pick out and read most of my extracts from the news and the blogs.
At the end of this header is my personal take on health supplements for any interested.
1) No personal insults!
2) No six year olds, please.
3) No Conspiracy Theories
FORMAT: Please list a source at the start of the article. List a URL at the bottom if there is material that needs to be referred to.
If I identify you as a "troll," just dropping by to cause trouble, you will be gone with no warning. Don't insult people. No foul language. I will warn by PM, or publicly. Then you will be suspended.

One of the most important political articles of the last decade was undoubtedly Walter Russell Mead's The Jacksonian Tradition from the Winter 1999 issue of The National Interest. It is long, but of great importance. We are almost all "Jacksonians" here.

Here is a link to the Powerline post that will go down as the most famous blog in history. It broke the the Rather/forgery story to the wider blog audience. powerlineblog.com
Long-time readers here will recall my mentioning Andrew J Galambos. He was my mentor back in the 70's and changed my life. As he did almost everyone who dealt with him. This link will give you a great overview of the start of the Libertarian movement.

"The Pentagon's new Map," by Dr Thomas Barnett
I find Barnett to be the most important "futurist" thinker around. This is the Esquire article that made Barnett's "bones." It was published just as the Iraqi liberation started.

The 25 minute video serves as an introduction to Barnett's philosophy of Department of War and Department of "Everything else." LINK
There is an 82 minute of Barnett's brief up on Utube. This one was recorded this last April.
