Roman Hruska famously said in defending a Nixon Supreme Court appointee called mediocre, "Even if he is mediocre, there are a lot of mediocre judges and people and lawyers.

In fact, as you'll see when they officially make this announcement, Kristol's work will be right above the new Times section called " Curveballing", where our government's loyal and dependable informant now gets a weekly spot to share foreign policy thoughts and ideas, which will then automatically be implemented upon publication.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04293499588230861426noreply@blogger.com
