Beware of politicians with good intentions New York, The death toll of innocent people killed in Afghanistan has well-exceeded 3,000 - the amount of people who died in the Sept. 11 attacks. But don't concern yourself with this. As numerous readers have kindly pointed out to me, the Afghan deaths were unintentional - unlike those on Sept. 11. The dead Afghans were the unavoidable collateral damage involved in capturing Osama bin Laden and ridding Afghanistan of religious tyrants. (And I'm sure that any day now, Osama bin Laden will.tured.

Judge John Gleeson's Moral Compass New York Liberty at New York, Criminal defense lawyers don't always have kind words for prosecutors. But United States District Court Judge John Gleeson of the Eastern District of New York could make me eat my words. Judge Gleeson, who went from Southern District superstar mob prosecutor straight to the bench, has proven to one the finest and most thoughtful judges around. His decision this week in McKithen v. Brown (via Volokh) demonstrates Judge Gleeson's commitment to the integrity of the criminal justice system rath.

Gray area I recently finished Eric L. Goldstein's The Price of Whiteness. Highly recommended. For a thorough, helpful review of the book, see Sam Brody here. For my less coherent take, see below: It was hard, given what I study, not to implicitly compare each moment of the American Jewish history Goldstein describes with what was going on in the same period for French Jews. I did what I could not to make reading the book a busman's holiday experience, but the urge was overpowering. So much. New York ticket broker.

Health Care Is Not A Right . HEALTH CARE IS NOT A RIGHT by Leonard Peikoff, Ph.D. Delivered at a Town Hall Meeting on the Clinton Health Plan Red Lion Hotel, Costa Mesa CA December 11, 1993 Good morning, ladies and gentlemen: Most people who oppose socialized medicine do so on the grounds that it is moral and well-intentioned, but impractical; i.e. it is a noble idea - which just somehow does not work. I do not agree that socialized medicine is moral and well-intentioned, but impractical. Of course, it *is. ticket brokers.

Congratulations, Atlanta Congratulations, Atlanta Atlanta Dream: 91; Chicago Sky: 84 The first win for the Atlanta Dream has made me very happy I can't imagine how thrilled the Dream fans are. They have had the longest losing streak (0-17) in WNBA history without actually being a bad team. Quite a few of those losses were thrillers. I know. I watched the game where the New York Liberty barely beat them. I think it's astonishing and wonderful that more than 8,000 people have shown up for every one of those games even.tickets.
