MUSINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
A hectic day. There will not be much blogging tonight as I am preparing the third installment of my Military Theory series at Chicago Boyz, hopefully will put it up tomorrow. The rest of the evening was devoted to gathering some of my material for Sean and Tom and, most importantly, helping my daughter with her dinosaur diorama. An effort that involved large amounts of colored clay, toothpicks, a shoebox and crayon drawings of Megalosaurus in action.
Two unrelated recommendations to read:
shloky is in fine form today: "Private Militaries and Market States" and "Super Empowered Individuals + Elections"
"Hiss Was Guilty" By John Earl Haynes and Harvey Klehr
Haynes and Klehr, two historians who know the documentary evidence of Communist espionage and subversion in America like few others in the field, deserve thanks for their tireless vigilance in countering attempts by Leftist activists to engage in denial and obfuscation of the historical record regarding Soviet spy Alger Hiss.
Once, defending Hiss was a cottage industry among American intellectuals; today it is a sign of kool-aid consumption.
