		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday Han highlighted the differences between two versions of constitutional originalism.

Charles’ post yesterday raised some critical questions as to when “parents should have the power to ban school texts.” While there are obviously difficult cases, I think most people would balk at the idea of pulling Catcher in the Rye or The [...]

Last week General David Petraeus made news for speaking out against a Florida church’s plan to burn copies of the Koran. While many commended General Petraeus for his comments, a few others felt his tone was inappropriate. Over at the Democracy Arsenal,  Michael Cohen worries that Petraeus [...]

In defense of the attacks, Han drew an analogy between bombing targets that don’t impose an immediate threat and preemptively attacking criminals who threaten your families safety. Suppose a bunch of villains surround your house and [...]

On Sunday, he strongly critiqued President Obama’s religious beliefs. Beck claimed that Obama &#8220;is a guy who understands the world through liberation theology, which is oppressor-and-victim.&#8221; &#8220;People aren&#8217;t [...]
