George Weigel.....

has an excellent column today. He writes in the context of New York's new gay-marriage law, but touches on many other aspects of the (sometimes antagonistic) relationship between the insatiable state and the rest of us. Allusions to Arendt, Kolakowski, and Revel doesn't hurt either.

For all the loyal readers out there, there will be a couple more posts soon, possibly even today. I have some thoughts on Fourth of July in exile, and the Women's World Cup, It's been a long week, and it's only Wednesday.
