Two posts that struck a chord with me:

Pat Sajak on Hollywood's deafening silence towards the murder of Theo van Gogh.

Andrew Sullivan on two recent films that both poke fun at and celebrate the American Experience, and that have been lambasted by critics on the left.

Whenever I bring up this sort of blindness or even hypocrisy (don't even get me started on race or sexual preferences), the conversation gets routed back to how evil the current administration is - a convenient dodge from responding to my questions. Eventually, though, and on a grander scale, someone's going to have to answer if they ever have hope of winning an election.
