Idle thoughts of a relatively libertarian Republican in Cambridge, MA, and whomever he invites. Mostly political.

Colby Cosh appears to be closer to my view on the Michael Jackson baby-dangling incident than Lileks, the Kitchen Cabinet (if this link still goes to the wrong place, go to their front page and search for "terrifying"), and pretty much everyone else. I saw the episode on the news and thought, "is it really news that Michael Jackson is Not A Normal Person?" Or, as Cosh so delicately puts it:
Why would anyone who thought Michael's behaviour up till now has been OK be horrified by some triviality like dangling a child over a balcony?
