Woodward lied? Or TeddyKerry?
Lee Harris dissects a critic. Surely persuasion is the solution to all ills, no? And it's so easy!
And Lee slam dunks the quote of the day: "I can give you an argument, but I cannot give you an understanding. -- Samuel Johnson"
"The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light." --Jesus
"Sometimes the first duty of intelligent men is the restatement of the obvious" --George Orwell
"The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function." --F. Scott Fitzgerald

Well now, this is certainly inconvenient.
Panic as policy?
Home Depot trumps national security. And frequent flyers deserve all the inconvenience we can dish so as to avoid any possible hurt feeeeelings. Or common sense.
The third contender?
And what day would be complete without an update on Amin's trail of carnage? UPDATE: Read. This. Also. What. The. Hell. Is. Wrong. With. The. British. Don't get me wrong -- I love them in so many ways. But the feckless wrong-headed anti-semitism of Herbert Samuel and his staff leading to the elevation of Amin will eventually be recognized by historians as one of the truly great mistakes. This is just absolutely devastating.
Unfortunately, the good old days of de-Nazification are seen through rose colored glasses regarding how systematic we and the allies were. The only ones who got the concept right were the Soviets -- but then gave us the great gift of East Germany due to their own ruinous ideology.

The NYeT slips dangerously close to the rule-base versus goal-based precipice... Must. Read. Now.
Sure, that sounds reasonable.
