In Defense of Silly Hats

Today, two Spectator authors, sick of readers having all the fun, take to our Reader Mail to mix it up. Robert VerBruggen explains to our gun-ho readers why the Supreme court would be right to rule that pistols and uzis are different and political archeologist Deroy Murdock continues his pain-causing excavation of the real Romney record. He has discovered the perfect candidate and it's...Rudy Giuliani. Speaking of "his Rudyness," Larry Thornberry files this amusing dispatch from the Sunshine State, where the former mayor makes 'em wait. Speaking of sunshine, RiShawn Biddle chronicles some darker attempts of school districts to escape the shiny scrutinty that would come with honest reporting of graduation statistics. Plus, editor-in-chief R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr., says, bring back the silly hats!
