Political and social observations from two aspiring hedgehogs who love the Isaiah Berlin essay.

Today on Hugh's show, Fred Barnes pointed out that what these elitists are trying to do is tell people who voted nearly unanimously for Ruth Bader Ginsburg because the President is entitled to nominate who he wants to, that they now should refuse to confirm Harriet Miers because she's not qualified.
The thought makes reason stare.
