Mike's Blog Round Up
March 10, 2014

Hello, everyone. It's great to be back. So… thoughts on the insanitarium known as CPAC? Was it everything you dreamed it would be? (Certainly the usual suspects looked and sounded as crazy as ever. And the Republican establishment's sucking up to wingnuttery, for example Mitch McConnell’s, was typically sad, stupid, and predictable.)

Connecting the Dots: Robert Stein turns 90 and looks back at the human folly he's witnessed – yet remains hopeful.

P.M. Carpenter: The Republicans' delusional scenarios to nowhere in 2016.

Prairie Weather: On Snowden and the NSA's law-breaking, our government chooses not to listen.

Perrspectives: Obama's Ukraine critics are haunted by the ghost of Osama bin Laden.

The Duck of Minerva: Pakistan's democratic progression and the impending changes in Afghanistan.

Round-up by Michael J.W. Stickings of The Reaction. (Twitter: @mjwstickings). I'll be here all week.
