Ezra Klein:
Fearful Nation  —  I genuinely don't understand the quaking fear over Ahmadinejad's interview at Columbia.  When did America become so weak, so insecure, that we mistrust our capacity to converse with potentially hostile world leaders?  Do we really believe the president of Columbia …

Jon Healey / L.A. Times:
MoveOn.org's thin skin  —  MoveOn.org's excessively discounted broadside against General David Petraeus in the New York Times two weeks ago won't rank as its most successful tactic.  The full-page nastygram appears not only to have solidified Republican opposition in the Senate for proposals …
Christopher Hitchens / Slate:
IF GORE WINS THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE, WILL HE RUN FOR PRESIDENT?  —  I am occasionally asked why it is that so many Europeans display reflexive anti-Americanism, and I force myself to choose from a salad of possible answers.  One of these is the resentment that I can remember feeling myself …
Bob Herbert / New York Times:
The Ugly Side of the G.O.P.  —  I applaud the thousands of people, many of them poor, who traveled from around the country to protest in Jena, La., last week.  But what I'd really like to see is a million angry protesters marching on the headquarters of the National Republican Party in Washington.
Dan Froomkin / Washington Post:
