Playgirl has fired its editor for announcing that she is Republican. The world is spared a Men of NATIONAL REVIEW issue.

The Senate has finally acceded to years of Bush-administration requests to allow drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska. Full congressional approval is expected to come soon. ANWR has too little oil for drilling there to represent a solution to America’s energy problems. But we are inclined to believe that the environmental impact of the drilling can be minimized. And since a solution to our energy problems does require facing down environmental hysteria, we are also inclined to see congressional approval as a very good thing.
