- A supposedly easy question with an interesting answer: who was our first African-American president? Would you be surprised to know that it might have been Condoleeza Rice? Read here for more of this interesting (if somewhat far-fetched) argument.
- Watching all of the inauguration hoopla, this question plagued me. Might there just be a hint of a double standard in American political discourse (that's a rhetorical question).
- Barack Obama, Libertarian? His first few days on the job have been encouraging.
- I am not afraid to admit that George F. Will nailed my take on the inaugural address. Not that I agree with the substance, but that is how I interpreted it.
- A great piece on the drama of civil religion that are inaugurations. Another interesting article from the same site on the "Oprafying of Obama."

Any mention of an executive order prohibiting the reader of poems at inaugurations?
Unless, of course, they're read by The Bears Who Sing for Duke.
