On any given day, I'm not sure of anything. I read the blogs to see who can put the day's news in context, who can pull the narrative thread through it elegantly, but without going all reductionist.
Today, I have three facts that I can't make sense of, and no one is knitting the sweater right, so I just have to try myself.
FACT 1: The Iraqi Security Folks wouldn't let the Secret Service put someone next to The Shoe Thrower Guy. FACT 2: Barack Obama just pulled a Barack Obama on us with Rick Warren. FACT 3: Bush just pulled a Bush and rammed through a new "Conscience Clause" rule.
