A gloomy morning, but the cherry blossoms are definitely close to peaking. And if I say so, not a bad shot given I just pulled my PowerShot out of my pocketbook and rolled down my car window while waiting for the light at 15th and Independence!
Obama, political nihilism, and Art
Posted in WM_archive on March 26, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
A quick lunchtime blog so that I can bookmark this post from Ali Eteraz on HuffPo re Obama. Ali suggests that we should vote for Obama because he is Nietzschean: Friedrich Nietzsche was a German philosopher. In the nineteenth century he predicted that over the next two centuries, the philosophy of nihilism — purposelessness and [...]
