The latest health care ruling from the 11th Circuit, striking down the individual mandate, uses the word "unprecedented" to describe the mandate more than a dozen times*. The opinion concludes that "It cannot be denied that the individual mandate is an unprecedented exercise of congressional power." The 2-1 ruling is significant in that it marks the first Democratic appointee to vote to strike down the mandate, and the second Republican to vote to uphold it. It also upheld the rest of the law, striking down only the mandate.
I have to admit I'm confused by this reader email posted by Ben Wittes on the recent Donald Rumsfeld torture civil cases, which he says " totally represents my own uncertainty" on the matter.
Debates are often a decent barometer of ideology, since candidates fall all over themselves to ingratiate themselves to their respective bases. Republicans have long since coalesced around a position of denying individuals accused of terrorism due process, but it's still remarkable to watch Republican presidential candidates reject due process out of hand.
Here's Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, disagreeing with Texas Rep. Ron Paul about trying suspected terrorists in civilian court:
The shadow war in Somalia.
Basic economics.
Can teachers overcome poverty?
Eleven angry men.
There's a pretty vigorous discussion thread on my Bachmann post, but I want to follow up with a couple of points. Some folks argued that the fact that Bachmann endorsed the authors in question doesn't inherently mean she shares their distorted view of slavery. This is a mistake, as Ryan Lizza explains that to whatever degree she agrees with each individual point, she certainly agrees with the idea that slaveovers who refused to free their slaves might do so for "benevolent" reasons.
President Obama hosted an Iftar dinner celebrating the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan yesterday, and used it as an opportunity to urge tolerance and recognize the contributions of Muslim Americans. At one point in his speech, he pointed out that, contrary to conservatives claiming that Muslims collectively attacked America on 9/11, there were Muslim Americans on the plane that crashed into the towers:
Matthew Yglesias wonders if Jonathan Podhoretz is too stupid to understand that North Korean style communism and American style democracy are the only political systems available:
Josh Rogin takes a look at Rick Perry's foreign policy brain trust, and quotes a Perry adviser who says he'd be a "hawk internationalist."
"He will distinguish himself from other Republicans as a hawk internationalist, embracing American exceptionalism and the unique role we must play in confronting the many threats we face," one foreign policy advisor with knowledge of Perry's thinking told The Cable. "He has no sympathy for the neo-isolationist impulses emanating from some quarters of the Republican Party."
Here's the list Rogin compiles:
Following up on yesterday's conversation about Cornel West and Tavis Smiley, Randall Kennedy reviews Touré's new book urging an embrace of "post-blackness," meaning "we are [like President Barack Obama] rooted in, but not restricted by, Blackness."
As you can probably tell from my twitter feed, I was following Tavis Smiley and Cornel West around earlier today so I wasn't able to post as much. But here are some end of the day links:
Superman, New Deal Liberal.
The AJC loses Cynthia Tucker.
Conservative blames British riots on diversity, but America is much more diverse.
In the latest in a series of conservative unintended advertisements for change at the civil rights division of the Justice Department, Pajamas Media have announced that through the results of a Freedom of Information Act Request, they've determined that "There are so many aggressive attorneys who previously worked at the ACLU, NAACP, Legal Aid, or at the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights that it is a wonder these organizations have anyone left on their staffs."
Dahlia Lithwick looks at the plaintiffs in one of the Donald Rumsfeld torture civil suits and writes:
Comedian Steve Harvey has words with Tavis Smiley and Cornel West:
The Original King of Comedy, Family Feud host and suit designer didn't stop there. After reading Smiley's request that Obama join him for "a roundtable for two or three days on poverty," Harvey joked, "Who in the hell got 2-3 days for your ass? I ain't got time to sit down with your monkey behind for two, three days, let alone the President of the United States. We got three wars going on, the economy crashing and we going to sit down with Tavis ass for three days?"
Nostalgia as a species of laziness.
Texas closes a prison for the first time ever.
Conservatives mad DoJ is hiring civil-rights lawyers to work on civil rights.
Feminist societies have more fun.
John Derbyshire may have had a few before deciding to comment on the riots in Britain:
Why does the British government not do its duty? Because it is the government of a modern Western nation, sunk like the rest of us in trembling, whimpering guilt over class and race. Through British veins runs the poisonous fake idealism of "human rights" and "sensitivity," of happy-clappy multicultural groveling and sick, weak, deracinated moral universalism — the rotten fruit of a debased, sentimentalized Christianity.

The presidential race may be where the glamour is, but it's not where liberals can build power.
As on most things religious, the United States is an outlier.
John McCain accuses other Republicans of being insufficiently Reaganish, despite what Ronald Reagan actually was.

During November 2011, a team of marine scientists and environmental reporters embarked on a pioneering research expedition along the remote west coast of Madagascar. Based aboard a traditional Malagasy wooden sailing dhow, the international team surveyed the health and biodiversity of the Barren Isles, a 100 km long chain of coral islands off the west coast of the Madagascar. The team worked above and below the water to support the conservation of one of the Mozambique Channel's remotest and least known coral reef archipelagos.
Live map of the route
View Barren Isles exploratory expedition in a larger map
Expected itinerary
The expedition was at sea for three weeks, sailing from the town of Morondava. During the voyage marine biologists collected important scientific data, documenting local conservation issues, and raised awareness of the conservation value of marine resources. Throughout the voyage the expedition reported its findings online through this blog, also producing films and news reports documenting threats to the region's spectacular marine life, and investigating the impacts of climate change on the archipelago's fragile marine environment.
"This cruise will be the first of its kind in Madagascar, giving us an unprecedented opportunity to share our incredible marine heritage with the public & to engage people in communicating conservation messages."
-Mialy Andriamahefazafy, Environmental Policy Officer
The eight-person team included international marine biologists, photographers, film-makers and journalists – all helping to increase environmental awareness by sharing stories about marine conservation issues through radio and film.

Team members
Dr Alasdair Harris: I am a marine biologist based in Madagascar where my work focuses on supporting Blue Ventures' various conservation initiatives around the island. Usually confined to a desk job in Madagascar's capital Antananarivo, I am being allowed out of the office to board Nofy Be and help out on the expedition as a coral ecologist.
George (Bic) Manahira: Having dived recently in the Barren Islands I am looking forward to being part of the first team documenting their health and I am excited to return with photographs, films and stories that we can use to inspire others to learn more about this amazing place in which we live.
Charlie Gough: This research cruise to the Barren islands will be the first time that anyone has systematically explored and documented the status of the reefs of this region, and I'm looking forward to keeping you all updated with the characters, creatures and stories great and small that we encounter on our route!
Claude Farandriaka: Being part of this expedition to survey the Barren islands and communicate the results with the local community and the rest of the world will be an important event in my life. I look forward to learning a great deal with a multidisciplinary and professional team of scientists, reporters, and cameramen.
Dr Garth Cripps: I'm particularly interested in the human story behind conservation and followed the Vezo migration to the Barren Isles in 2009. Their migration epitomises many of the challenges that they face: driven by poverty and the collapse of their local fisheries, they sail thousands of kilometres from their homes to find still productive fishing grounds.
Jon Schleyer: This is my third trip to the west coast of Madagascar to see the great progress being made by the communities towards sustaining their marine resources. It is two and a half years since I was last in the area so I am excited to see what developments have occurred after my previous visit.
Mialy Andriamahefazafy: As the environmental policy officer I am in charge of ensuring that all our projects are evolving in a beneficial legal framework. This trip represents a very important opportunity. Through the different communications media that we will employ, we will be able to share the fabulous marine diversity that we see with the public.
Tanguy Nicolas: It is not easy to bring change in such a remote place – communication with the rest of the country is difficult. So having the opportunity to embark on a scientific expedition and share the outputs with the local community, using local radio and video, will be a positive fresh wind.
Thomas: I grew up in the Malagasy village of Andavadoaka with my three brothers and my very large Vezo family. I want to help the Vezo understand that if we can work together now, we can keep fishing in the future. As the fishermen run to find more fish, we will be running alongside to teach them.
Dr Yann Frejaville: This research cruise aboard the Nofy Be is a privilege and a unique opportunity to explore and study reefs presenting very low levels of fishing pressure – perhaps pristine reefs- an experience that has unfortunately become a rare and precious resource in the world.
