Newsweek is running a long article about what many are calling an impending “clash of wills” between the US and China. The authors certainly give plenty of examples, but Polimom was struck more by the similarities. For instance:
… While Bush has spent the past five years fighting global terrorism, promoting the idea of democracy and […]
Polimom’s Adorable Child (AC) had a tough time in school last year. She and her Best Friend Forever (BFF) du jour kept getting into trouble, picking on younger kids, and defining exclusionary cliques that were deliberately designed to hurt feelings. Needless to say, the parents of those kids - and the school […]
Well, I guess as long as I’ve spent the day focused on the gap manifesting between the left and right, it seems appropriate to have found this:
A Christian Can Be a Christian or a Liberal, But He Can’t Be Both
Can a Christian be a liberal? Short answer: no. There is no way a Christian can […]
Polimom’s been growing concerned by the increased rhetoric and accompanying threats and comments being made by the left and right factions. It’s been going on for quite a while, but the divide between otherwise sane Americans appears to be extending far beyond ordinary partisanship, and I think we should be considering what this means.

I have to admit, it’s pretty disorienting to be in Houston, seeing signs about “our” mayor… Nagin. Polimom suspects they’re feeling similarly discombobulated in Atlanta.
Who’s paying for that? It made me curious enough to google on “Ben Edwards” […]
Although this is totally apropos of Easter, or anything else today, I just had to share:
A Big Ad
There are two posts this morning about Iran; one here (below), and one at Polimom, Too. Barring some unforeseen cataclysmic event, though, I’m done with heavy thoughts til tomorrow.
Today, Polimom turns [mumble-mumble] years old, and AC has planned a party, complete with guests and party favors… and I’m off to gorge myself on […]
I’ve had a number of interesting emails in the last few days about Iran… or at least, I think they were about Iran. It’s hard to be sure when mid-stream thoughts seem to morph into a discussion about Iraq. For example:
“The haste to attack Iran does not surprise me […]
