WHATEVER

ENGLISH
Where a common language is present, it creates a cultural glue; where it isn’t, there are usually deep-seated divisions . . . In short, language occupies an outsized space in the cultural life of nations, and the role of English here in the United States is no different. --Rich Lowry, National Review Online 11/11
HAPPINESS
Jesus does want us to be happy—absolutely. But his call on our lives is much grander and nobler than that. As Jesus modeled, he wants us to respond with integrity to the failure of hedonism. He wants us to have tears for others. He wants those tears to unite us with a God who shed tears—a God of love and of justice. He wants following that God to lead us to the sacrificial love and service of others that alone brings not only pleasure but forgiveness, peace, purpose, and hope—the very fullness of life. --Vince Vitale, Slice of Infinity
THE LEFT
But the Left treats all disagreement with its policy preferences as lawlessness. --Andrew McCarthy, National Review Online, 11/13
THE RICH
The danger of promising that the rich can pay for everything is multifaceted. First, it’s not true. Second, you don’t have to be a student of public choice theory to understand that the more Washington behaves as if it’s true, the more the wealthy will intervene in our politics. And third, the more citizens believe that a small group of undeserving wealthy people are denying them nice things, the uglier our politics will become. --Jonah Goldberg, ditto
