Judge Janice Rogers Brown, in an August 2000 speech to the Institute for Justice [.pdf]:
From Kevin Carson’s neocon lexicon/guide to inner peace:
Moral Relativism. Aka historicism. The denial of any unified, objective standard of value. The diametric opposite of Moral Equivalence (q.v.).
Moral Equivalence. Judgment of the United States government by the same unified, objective standard of value as the governments of other countries. The diametric opposite of Moral Relativism (q.v.).
Moral Clarity. The Zen-like state of mind from which it is possible to accuse the same political enemy, simultaneously, of both Moral Relativism and Moral Equivalence.

*Worried about the military’s recruiting slump? Well, don’t just stand there being a chickenhawk. Pull out a feather and hand it to a younger chickenhawk.
*Why the ChiComs are still around and the Soviets aren’t.
*The frog slowly comes to a boil: an excellent bit of libertarian synthesis.

‘I’ll be on “Connected Coast to Coast” hosted by Ron Reagan and Monica Crowley, on Friday(noon EST/9am PST). It’s a segment about military recruiting.. and why the numbers are so low. (Duh!)

Which I guess means he and his whole family are going to be signing up to go to Iraq real soon now …
