Deep Wish List Items (Updated)
I'm not going to spend good money on a hardback, but here's two books any conservative can send me.
Firstly, there's Ambassador John Bolton's Surrender Is Not an Option (available in Palm Reader format). Bolton sounded almost human on the clip above.
Then, there's The Reluctant Communist. Richardson at DPRK Studies has pre-ordered and already plugged Charles Robert Jenkins' chance to cash in on treason.
Update: Richardson accuses me of flipping on Jenkins. Actually, I haven't. I still believe he's a traitor, and the Constitution is quite unequivocal about the penalty for treason. Traitors are the only criminals who deserve to die by the State's hand. Along with Richard Hanssen and other spies, Jenkins deserves death.
But, I accepted Richardson's argument that Jenkins' book might include valuable information on DPRK. Also, I do feel compassion for his family. Similarly, I would consider Bolton's arguments, notwithstanding his efforts to undermine the IAEA and tarnish Mohammed ElBaradei's reputation.
The old habits of the blogosphere based on linking and engagement have broken down. If Richardson's blog is so popular with conservatives, that he doesn't need anyone else's links, I salute him. As a centrist, I look beyond my comfort zone routinely. But, I realize regrettably there are bloggers who take engagement as a signal for defending the fort.

As the original aggrieved party, I say both good riddance and how typical of American conservatives! It's no loss!
