Now I need to have my alma mater terminate John Yoo! (What gave with THAT appointment?)

I'm in favor of whatever simplistic slogans will help Obama get elected, including the "move beyond" kind. I place my trust in his obvious intellect, in his being a very quick study and his concomitant pragmatism. Once elected, he will be pitching a new ball game and will encourage confrontations on several fronts, including those with Washington lobbyists, something he discusses even now. I have faith that the onetime "recruiter" on the South Side of Chicago knows and respects the champions of the Civil Rights movement and that all will not be feel-good seamlessness in an administration that aspires to accomplish anything worthwhile.
