Hard Questions

Some were asked of me privately.

Reading the names of U.S. and Iraqi dead on the steps of Memorial Church March 20, 2007 - Invasion + 4 yr. Reading the names of U.S. and Iraqi dead, March 20, 2007 - Invasion + 4 yr.

I discovered that Harvard Law School is not totally a branch office of the Federalist Society, when the Legal Left took me to dinner1, again when Unbound had their Resistance conference, and again on the 4th anniversary of the invasion. But I am still getting over the Milgram reception given to Chertoff. […]
