Reconciliation
Recap: What politics looks like to a child; 2010 tied with 2005 for hottest year on record; and the GOP creates some policy uncertainty.
Elsewhere:
1) Remember the health-care co-ops?
2) Robert Stavins on renewable energy standards.
3) A deep read of the new Kanye album.
4) The president as the public's emotional representative.

Frankly Ezra, not every offbeat thought of yours needs to be made into a post! Lately it seems that the volume has increased markedly but the "why is THAT worth a post" factor has gone way up too.
If even I can only find one or two posts a day controversial enought to write about, maybe it's time for a tuneup?

Democrats - you are all going to tell us that YOU haven't lost confidence in this dude Obama ???
The guy doesn't even know how to properly handle a mass murder.
The democrats have to be holding back their complete lack of confidence that Obama can do anything right.
Obama and his people treated the country to nothing less than a circus this week.
And at every turn, they are attacking - or demanding that the other side join them in a truce for their own good.
A mass murder is an opportunity for Obama to play political games - the country is not happy.
Obama is in control of his own people - his SILENCE this week while his people attacked -
These idiot pundits this morning - pretending that none of that happened - and the first thing we have heard from Obama and his people this week started after the Indian left the stage.
Seriously folks, this is a major political party of a Superpower???
This is the fourth clown act in the side ring of a bad circus.
