Jonah Goldberg has his annual column celebrating Bastille day. Definitely worth a read.

A report says that “constructive engagement” has only allowed the evil government of China to become more powerful (they can now nuke Mississippi). Lesson is, don’t be nice to evil governments; they’ll use that to their evil advantage. I hope the current administration will learn and take a harder stance towards China and maybe bomb them now and then until they learn to play nice. But, seeing how they like to play buddy buddy with the Saudis, I’m not getting my hopes up.
