Sneak Attack: The Bush administration is trying to change the legal definition of "child," ostensibly to enable Medicare to pay for prenatal care for pregnant women. However: "The truth is the decision had little to do with the health care of women. It was a political move, pure and simple. It was the Bush administration's way of sending a message to the right- wingers of the Republican Party: Don't give up hope. We're committed to undermining abortion rights." The story is certainly worth reading in full, especially the last paragraph which notes that there's no need to change legal definitions of anything to provide health care for the 11 million children currently without coverage. I fear this is only the beginning. Things really are worse than they appear. 8:56:34 AM

America and Anti-Americans: "In spite of the military successes, America finds itself facing a broader ideological adversary that may turn out to be as hard to defeat as militant Islam: anti-Americanism, which is presently becoming more evident everywhere.
" -- Is Salmon Rushdie being strategic here (saying things he doesn't really believe in order to make his message palatable, and therefore persuasive, to his opponents), or does he really believe that European anti-Americanism is "petulant" and not well-founded? One point is true: It's hard to argue at this point that the military actions in Afghanistan were a bad idea. I still would like to make that argument, but getting anyone to listen these days is more or less impossible. The appropriate cliche: Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 8:42:21 AM
