John Donovan at Argghhh! has an interesting post on how we should increase re-enlistments in our armed services - based on the Navy in 1779.

Tony the Oriental Redneck looks at Kerry then (1971) and now (2004). Go to "Kerry Inconsistencies On Veterans And Foreign Policy" if link is blogspotted.

Tasty Manatees takes Jonah Goldberg to task on the issue of blogs and anonymity and pseudonymity. It's a great post - go read it.
