My review on James Risen’s A State of War is now online at American Conservative. The spying scandal continues to show Washington at its best. Yesterday, Republicans on the Senate Intelligence Committee agreed to support a legislative reform to the FISA law to legalize Bush’s actions. One key change: Feds would be allowed to wiretap […]

Not Bush’s Fault
I am sometimes criticized for being excessively harsh on George W. Bush. I want to take this opportunity to make it clear that I don’t blame the president for everything.

It was posted online by a Brazilian business lobby here. The generous review essay published by Counterpunch was translated into Portuguese […]
Reason magazine runs my hit on TSA Killers & Apologists
The March issue of Reason contains my piece on the servile media coverage of the TSA’s killing of an airline passenger in Miami. The feds falsely claimed that Rigoberto Alpizar had run down the aisle of the plane shouting about having a bomb before G-men plugged him. Unfortunately, the media has almost completely ignored this […]
