Obama: a new beginning? (afternoon edition)

William Faulkner defined the situation: "The past isn't dead; it isn't even past."

The past is always with us... to paraphrase Joe Louis, "we can run, but we can't hide."

The Indians (from India) put it in an even more graphic expression, "so the meal, so the flavor of the belch".

There
is some idea going around that somehow, through Obama's divine grace, I
suppose, we can miraculously put hundreds of years of history in the
icebox and begin anew.


The Reverend Wright is the just the "flavor of the belch."
