« THE BULLSHITTER-IN-CHIEF | Main | HERE WE GO ROUND THE MULBERRY BUSH »

MIGHTY PEN

Bob Herbert has written the lead of the week in this morning's column. The mood of it -- especially his description of the Bullshitter-in-Chief -- captures our sentiments exactly. As Herbert put it, our B-in-C has "the unsettling demeanor of a boy king ... who launched a savage war in Iraq and now spends his days happily riding his bicycle in Texas."

We've taken a vote on this, and no other lead comes close. The rest of the column -- about the air of unreality that has settled over the nation and a privileged class of hawks who send "other people's children" to fight the war -- isn't too shabby either.
