If you can get past your excitement over former Louisiana Gov. Buddy Roemer entering the GOP presidential race, you'll like these:

The Peking Duck: No, the Jasmine Revolution in China is not Tiananmen 2.0. In fact, it's not a revolution at all.

Fruits and Votes: Libyan rebels calls for U.N. airstrikes on pro-Qaddafi targets. But is military intervention a good idea, or are economic sanctions and other non-military U.N. actions more likely to prove successful? (Feel free to weigh in.)

Alternate Brain: George Will is wrong about a lot of things, including trains. Yes, trains.

Odd Man Out: The media like Charlie Sheen, not so much angry Wisconsin workers. It's all about entertainment, you see, and Sheen is nothing if not an entertainer, even when "crazy."
