Rammstein released a new album in mid October. The album is called “Liebe ist für alle da,” in English, “Love is for everyone.” Anyone with a rudimentary understanding of any Germanic language, including English, should be able to understand the words that comprise this title, it is amazing what some folks come up with.

My Reader- Politics Without RomanceIn this article, I celebrate — on the occasion of his 90th birthday — the central lessons taught by Jim Buchanan (who, I have just learned, will again teach a seminar at GMU this coming Spring semester!). A key ‘graf from my article: Buchanan insists that we should always look upon “politics without romance,” that we ought never to forget that all the fine c […]
- Al Gore, IgnoramusAl Gore has made an enormous amount of money by pretending to know something about science. He is by no means the first such charlatan, but he must be one of the most successful. A week or two ago, when we interviewed National Review's John Derbyshire on our radio show, he emphasized that he is a science guy at heart. Today, at The Corner, he takes Gore […]
- You Keep Using That Word Incentive. I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It MeansThe Boston teacher's union is blocking an incentive bonus for exceptional teachers sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates and Exxon Mobil foundations unless the bonuses are distributed equally among all teachers, good, bad, and average. Last July I wrote about Massachusetts' latest cunning plan to stop failing schools: come up with a new word for […]

- The Most Vile Column of the Day: Berlin Wall EditionWas getting a Polish translator for Gen. Jaruzelski proving difficult? Did the emails to the long-dead Comrade Honecker keep bouncing? I mean, I expected this from The Guardian (and boy did they deliver), but I was rather surprised that The New York Times weighed in the Berlin Wall anniversary with this unbelievable nonsense from the Stalinist Slovenian acad […]

Starred Items- QuestionDo you think the reason Obama hates Palin so much is that her name is different from his and she doesn't look like the other presidents on the dollar bills?
- MasonomicsTyler Cowen recently gave a talk on what is distinctive about George Mason economics. It was nicely summarized by Arnold Kling (who got the whole thing started with this superb essay) then attacked by Pete Boettke for giving insufficient respect to GMU’s Austrian roots. I think Tyler and Pete both made the mistake of describing their own views of economics a […]
- Bryan and Herbert (by Russell Roberts)Bryan Caplan lists the 21 things Herbert Hoover mentioned in a 1932 speech just before the election that Hoover claimed help save the economy. Bryan is making the point that Hoover wasn't a free market guy in the least. What I found chilling was the analogy to what the Bush administration has done so far. When Bush leaves office he'll surely mentio […]
- McCain Did Anticipate Problems with Fannie and FreddieABC's Jake Tapper:'Two years ago, I warned that the oversight of Fannie and Freddie was terrible, that we were facing a crisis because of it, or certainly serious problems,' Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., told CBS this morning. 'The influence that Fannie and Freddie had in the inside the Beltway, old boy network, which led to this kind of cor […]

- Brains (by Russell Roberts)Are our brains being affected by technology? Probably. Nicholas Carr worries:Over the past few years I’ve had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something, has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory. My mind isn’t going—so far as I can tell—but it’s changing. I’m not thinking the way I used to think. I can […]
- All Hail Al Gore!Al Gore gave a little speech which you can read and watch here. He's essentially calling for a Manhattan Project, an Apollo, to move the entire US economy away from a dependence upon carbon. Nothing like an out of office politician for seeking the limelight, eh? He does make some interesting points: solar is indeed getting cheaper as economies of scale […]
- Me hate? Maybe…..I started this post before spring break but just got to complete it now. Sorry - I was looking forward to skiing in Colorado a little more than writting :-) Over the past two days, I’ve been having visitors from Delije.net. Delije are fans of the Crvena Zvjezda soccer team (translated Red Star). This was the referal that lead to Nidza’s comment: Oh, poo […]
- My question for ZawahriIn the glorious Qur'an, it says:"It is not for a believer to take a believer's life except by mistake; and he who kills a believer by mistake should free a slave who is a believer, and pay blood-money to the victim's family unless they forego it as an act of charity. If he belonged to a community hostile to you but was himself a believer, […]
- When Speaking Out Against The Inhumane Act of Forced Marriage……is viewed as more offensive than the act itself At least it seems that way. Schools fear that forced marriages poster campaign will upset parents Schools in areas feared to have high rates of forced marriage are refusing to display posters on the issue because they are too hard-hitting, according to a government report. Headteachers are unwilling to put up […]
