The non-governmental organization Save the Children has rightly earned a reputation for bringing the best practices in sustainable development and family health care to developing nations around the world. But in selecting Dr. Bill Frist as its front-man for its new "Survive to 5" campaign against childhood mortality, Save the Children has chosen the wrong prescription.

For the details, see:

Thanks for the link, Mike. I think Krugman has the Democrats' likely response nailed here.

Scott Horton's "No Comment" blog is consistently amazing. It routinely mixes philosophy, political science, and classical literature to provide a refreshing analysis of current events. I encourage everyone to read it, you'll be surprised what you learn.

That being said, can anyone recommend any more blogs like Horton's?

Glad you highlighted that Sargent piece. He's always good.

Thanks for the link, Mike. And for the extra reading. Smintheus as always is doing some excellent ferreting.
