| China can build things. Why can't India?
Can you imagine what would happen if India became as productive or as (infrastructure-wise) strong as China? Whatever few jobs you have left in the West would also vanish. Now we don't want that do we? It would be like as it always was in the last few thousand years, barring a couple hundred recent ones: Europe with a begging bowl and plague and all the beautiful third world stuff:) .

Over the weekend, I wrote about an adulating interview which CNN's John King conducted with John McCain while riding on the storied Straight Talk Express bus. The interview was broadcast on "Situation Room" with Wolf Blitzer. In that post, I printed all of the "questions" King asked of McCain in their full, unedited entirety as broadcast on CNN, linked to the full transcript of the program, and then added some commentary. Yesterday, I received a response from King via e-mail, the authenticity of which was confirmed in a subsequent exchange: From: King, John C To: GGreenwald@salon.com Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2008 5:40 PM Subject: excuse me? I don't read biased uninformed drivel so I'm a little late to the game.

It was funny to watch." ... Surprise — Radiohead's break with EMI might not have been a clean one. According to the U.K.'s Guardian, the band's former label had been promoting Radiohead's back catalog through a misleading online ad that the label subsequently yanked. The paper reports that people Googling the band's name would encounter an ad reading "Radiohead - New Album 'Rainbow' now available as boxset," referring to the band's recent In Rainbows release, at the top of the search page. But the ad actually directed to the box set of the band's back catalog that is being issued by EMI subsidiary Parlaphone — not the In Rainbows box set the band is putting out. Both box sets are dropping in December at the same price, which led fans to question EMI's motives. "Parlophone were aware of the data source glitch and removed the link immediately," EMI publicist Chris Latham told the Guardian, to which Radiohead's spokesperson — who went unnamed — reportedly replied, "We accept that it was a genuine error and that it has been rectified." Radiohead announced Monday that In Rainbows will arrive in North America in physical form on January 1 via their own TBD Records, which is teaming with ATO Records Group for the release.
