Marc Shulman's American Future looks at British moral weakness, (perhaps self-hate?), Andrew Sullivan's Iraq War jubilation, and the New York Times acting like the State Department (they've done this before).

TavoLoco, who along with Stuart Berman has been active in tdaxp's "Acquiring Network Address" thread, expands his GeoCities presence.

Slashdot links to Forbes' attack on blog swarming (hat-tip to Boing Boing, Zombie attacks (a type of net attack, like Hastert's), as well as the most ignorant criticism of Creationism I have ever heard: "Among the most significant forces is the rising tide of anti-science sentiment that seems to have its nucleus in Washington but which extends throughout the nation". (Creationism is a mass movement, not one of the political elite). I have done some work in evolutionary science, by the way.

MyDD continues the netroot response to Beinart's A Fighting Faith. Somewhat relatedly, Daily Kos celebrates Bill Clinton's "fight or find something else to do" comment, and misses the point completely. It's about ideas.
