MORE SHAMELESS PURLOINING OF BLOG POST IDEAS
I love Glenn's blog and I seriously believe that if Glenn did not exist we would be forced to invent him but, surely, when you characterized him as &#a true Renaissance man” you meant the Swiss Renaissance (which produced the cuckoo clock) rather than the Italian Renaissance (which produced Dante, the revival of learning, and humanism).

IN DEFENSE OF HAROLD PINTER'S WORK
Harold Pinter is probably England's greatest living playwright. That he is anti-American just made it a twofer for the Nobel Committee.
It's not too unusual for artists and writers (particularly poets) to become parodies of themselves if they live long enough. Wordsworth. Another prize-winner—William Butler Yeats.
And that they are otherwise idiots does not reflect on an artist's work. See Pushkin and Mozart, for example.

During that campaign Kennedy also characterized his faith as “an accident of birth”. Not precisely a call for religious tolerance, eh?

BUSH: A SOLITARY VOICE FOR REMEMBRANCE
Go easy on the poor French. After all France is the only country to lose World War II twice: once fighting against the Germans and once fighting with the Germans.

Indeed. Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.
