keep the following things in mind:

- non-committal
- revolving door
- bandwagon jumping

there is a way to do it

I have actually read a few like that.  I think it was called The Prospect...its a foreign policy debate magazine.  There was a good debate on China, for example, and how to deal with Iraq...

we should make a magazine about how awesome we are.

i mean, we have way more material for that, nearly 300k posts

we could call it "Principia Masturbatia - or How We Found the Goddess and how AWESOME she told us we are"
