I have not been on team anti-Chuck Hagel mostly because I didn't know a lot about Chuck Hagel. But what I'm finding out is deeply troubling -- including David Brooks' excellent post highlighted in my post Hagel the perfect foil to manage military’s decline over Republican...
As we all seek out ways to restore our country to the right path, I believe there is one area that has been neglected: culture. In 2013, my organization The Frontier Lab is excited to continue its study of the facets of the American character--how Americans understand...

Gawker just couldn't resist the million plus traffic the Lower Hudson Journal News garnered for its list of gun owners in Rockland County. If someone is going to be the center of outrage and attention, it must be Gawker. John Cook at Gawker has just published...
