The way a dog treats a post

I love the way Rupert Murdoch's New York Post has to report the debates. I knew Joe Biden had whupped the zombie-eyed granny starver like a rented mule when the Post's front page was reduced to saying that Biden is better at it than Obama. Today's headline is "Obama Scores Hollow Debate Victory."

Credo

Like Oscar Wilde, I believe that disobedience was our Original Virtue. In fact, I trace it back before humanity. I imagine every evolutionary advance coming in the face of warnings that the proposed change was dangerous, impious, and generally immoral. The first fish who crawled out onto the land was told to wait until everyone could do it. Maybe that's why they call it a school of fish.
