Cinnamon Stillwell, as I've mentioned before, is a promising young conservative guest columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle. Here's her latest for The Chron, "The Making of A 9/11 Republican."

Canada has decided it will not defend its own airspace from incoming missiles, thus relinquishing "sovereignty" of its skies to...guess who? At least we'll defend North America better than those Canuck putzes. P. Scott Cummins has more.

Speaking of Canada, don't miss Trudeaupia, a richly-observed and subversively conservative Canadian blog. For a few more sane, funny, and right-on Canadian bloggers, check out the "Canada" section of my blogroll.

Mike is an ex-marine with an MBA, who says he works as a "six sigma black belt" (does that mean martial arts instructor, or undercover operative, or what?) AND as a part-time university instructor. He also operates het2blog, an informed, well-written local political blog. He happens to live in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. You might not realize it, but blogging about Sheboygan is the future.

Always good to check in with my favorite gun-toting gay conservative from Texas. At "Right Side Of The Rainbow," Paul ruminates on the Times of London publishing its first-ever gay marriage engagement notice, and observes some telling details in the "happy couple's" story. He concludes, with a link to Donald Sensing, that gay marriage in itself won't erode the institution, but rather, demonstrates its already-greatly-weakened state.

The blog "Free Frank Warner" is written by "A Liberal For Liberation" and his motto is "Dreams Can't Come True If You Never Wake Up." I exchanged e-mails with Frank, over a year ago, when I first began Rosenblog, and last I heard he was working days as a copy editor at a daily paper in Pennsylvania. He's focused on foreign policy and global democracy; and while there are way too many folks blogging about the same big global and national stories these days, Frank's approach is fresh, and his writing really good. Here's a recent post on a German columnist wondering if Bush is right about pushing democracy in The Middle East. Warner concludes: "Only a fool bets against freedom. If you're wrong, you're exposed as a cynical bigot. If you're right, often enough you're either a slave or a rotting cadaver. On which side does Europe want to place its bets?"

Always on the case, Spartacus tracks down this notice at careerbuilder.com for.....an English-to-Monkey translator. Interested applicants should first review the employer's Web site.
