I just can’t find a copy anywhere without an indefinite wait. Where’d you get yours??

A thought.

An epiphanette.

Life imitating art.

“I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take this anymore!”

I got my copy of Unfit for Command Monday night. I read it Tuesday night. I am now on to Kerry’s The New Soldier, a truly disgusting book.

I’ve friends queuing up to borrow my Unfit as they can’t get copies here anymore.

Typical of the NYT, the headline suggests something nefarious. Then we get (my count may be off, but I no longer have the paper handy and its close enough for gubmint work) 28 paragraphs of story. Guestimate is its foughly a 1,000 word article. The first 10 paragraphs tie Ginsburg to Bush and Ginsburg to Republican 527s. Finally, around paragraph eleven, we get one paragraph that gives some a shallow explanation of what the rules are concerning 527s and this sort of connection. Paragraphs 15 and 16 then mention a two or three Dem connections to 527s. Then back to trying to make a case that there's something fishy about Ginsburg, the Swiftvets, and the Bush campaign.
