My diavlog with Mickey Kaus is now available at bloggingheads.tv. Among the topics discussed: Hezbollah, Ana Marie Cox's literary style, rational choice theory, Paris Hilton, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Kaus' declining stock as a pundit, sacred beliefs, immigration, Wal-Mart, and the best way to watch bloggingheads.tv. [Did you say Paris Hilton?--ed. Yes, click here if you want to jump to that part of the conversation.]
Listening to you and Micky Kaus talk about Hizbullah and the Middle East is like hearing Tom Cruise debate Matt Lauer about psychology.
Why don't you stick to trade policy or something you actually know something about? Or, at least, if you want to talk about the Middle East, stick to explaining Israel and leave the Arabs out of it. You try to put words and ideas into our heads and you are totally wrong on all counts. Kaus seems like a simple fool.

Reality TV stars are a good example of people who have become famous without money or talent.
