Week of June 14, 2009 - June 20, 2009

Froomkin Fired.


As one of the few remaining paper subscribers, I am stunned.  I'm going to wait for more details than appear to be currently available, but if I can get my wife to sign off on it I will cancel my subscription and take great pleasure in explaining why.  I'm perfectly happy to surf the site for free and if I can avoid that, I will do so.

Political Advisers Sank Truth Commission


It was bound to happen sooner or later, but it is nonetheless profoundly disappointing.  I am not sure, given the gigantic s**t sandwich this man inherited on 1/20, how to make him aware that (at a minimum) the investigation of torture is a moral imperative.  (Any doubts about the value of this program should be laid to rest by the testimony of so-called "#3", which the Post elected to place on page A2 in exchange for a critical above-the-fold piece about "Wannabe Wrestlers Ready to Rumble.")
