AN EXCELLENT MOVE (ER, NON-MOVE?) FROM PRESIDENT OBAMA: “Automotive News [sub] reports that the Obama administration has abandoned plans to nominate the CEO of Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) to head the National Highway Safety Transportation Administration (NHTSA). Although neither the White House nor Charles Hurley’s MADD men (and women) are saying Jack about the decision, it appears Hurley ran afoul of . . . environmentalists.”

Okay, he did the right thing for the wrong reason. But while T.S. Eliot disapproved of that, I’ll take it any way I can get it. . . .
