...candidate who will finally revive the left--or because those contributors and respondents know the truth--he is a rock-ribbed budget hawk, a moderate on gays and guns, and a true lefty on only a few issues, primarily the use of U.S. military power, which Dean seems to regard with a mixture of contempt and suspicion...
...Kudos to Charles Krauthammer for supporting the decisions of the Bijani twins and their doctors. But shame on him for getting stuck in the mire of religious values and cultural biases in regard to assisted suicide.

There's been a politicization of the hitherto apolitical middle and professional classes. Hong Kongers have signaled clearly that they regard the territory not only as a place to make money and then split for gentler political climes but as a permanent home for themselves, where their children and children's children can one day lead full lives. Leading members of the business ?lite are now openly acknowledging the need to heed public opinion...
