The battle against spam continues. July's comments are closed, and August's comments will be closing one week from today. It's last call for comments, and thus worth looking back at some of the noteworthy posts from last August (when you have a spare minute away from clicking on our sponsor's ads). A war twenty-nine-years done loomed large over the campaign. FlynnFiles discussed the irony of the Vietnam issue hurting the combat veteran rather than the fortunate son, as well as liberal double-standards on Clinton and Bush's avoidance of service in America's longest war. Time magazine looked at campus conservatives and featured me prominently in the article. I was all over the stranger-than-fiction Jim McGreevey story. My two-part post on the thirty-fifth anniversary of the Manson murders shouldn't be read with the lights off. And my piece on the band that time forgot, The Kinks, deserves a read, as does my search for Iron Mike Tyson.
