...talks derailed, Obama's more hands-off approach looked like a much smarter bet than McCain's all-in hand. But Obama may also now have some second thoughts about the virtues of national unity and citizen involvement. Sometimes it feels like democracy in action. Other times it feels like mob rule. The complexity of the problem and intricacy of the solution meant that the public response was more emotional than anything else. In a leadership vacuum, we got irrational belligerence, a desire to punish the greedheads that will take its broadest toll on the victims, not the perps...

The trip costs $92 per person and can be booked through arabianodyssey.co.uk...
...considerable challenges of rhyme and meter he set for himself. Of course he belonged to a generation of surpassing formal accomplishment. That fertile decade of his birth-the 1920s-also gave us Richard Wilbur, Anthony Hecht, Howard Moss, Amy Clampitt, Howard Nemerov. But as a craftsman he exceeded them all-in the thrill of the unexpected, anyway. Indeed, more than any American poet ever (with the possible exception of Marianne Moore), he conveyed an infectious, exuberant joy in sheer building...
