The Travesty

From Democratic Debate: Tube turn-off by the Seattle Post-Intelligencer Editorial Board:

We're at a crisis on so many points -- the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the economy, our health care system and, oh yes, global warming -- that frankly, a mangled statement on why some Americans cling to guns or religion and a fib of an anecdote about what happened before a ceremony on a tarmac in Bosnia in the '90s are completely immaterial. While the talking heads can't focus on what matters in the campaign, we hope the American public will be able to ignore the distractions and focus on the issues that could alter the country's course.
