And Hoyer’s in. This after NPR has spent the better part of a week talking about how powerful Pelosi is.
Well, Pelosi put it on the line, and got her face slapped. The Blue Dogs ain’t in the mood. So, Ms. Hardball better really think twice about the consequences of punishing Jane Harman.

So how’s this stack up in the great Huntington vs. Palmer debate?
Actually, it tends to support Robert Kaplan, and, by doing so, Augusto Pinochet, who argued that representative government was impossible without the existence of a solid middle class… and whose murderous regime was predicated upon preserving and growing it, no matter how many skulls he racked up in the process.
Yeah. Sometimes things can get pretty uncomfortable in the political history department. But in Kyrgyzstan, we see something similar: somebody had to pay for all those tents. You can’t go mount protests for weeks at a time when it’s “put in 12 hours minimum or you and your children starve — tonight.”
Congratulations, Kyrgyzstan!
