...Still, in an interview with CNN last month, Obama addressed the issue head-on, saying "I think the important thing is not experience per se. Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney had the best resumes in Washington and initiated a fiasco in Iraq." Obama's advisers are looking to turn the experience question around on his possible Democratic rivals as well, because many of them voted for the Iraq War in 2002 and have since been criticizing it. "Barack Obama in 2002 gives a speech and says that the war will cost hundreds of billions of dollars and cost thousands...

...diseased. In fact, there is a general acknowledgment, in all but the most troglodytic precincts, that our racial diversity is a major American competitive advantage in the global economy. And so, if universities can give special preferences to students from exotic locales like Casper, Wyo.-yes, you, Dick Cheney-they will find a way to make some exceptions for students from Harlem.

...judgment on the President, the American public roundly expressed its dissatisfaction with the Bush Administration, a dissatisfaction certain to resound throughout the pages of history. Bush is an honorable man, but he let himself be led astray by people like Rove and Vice President Dick Cheney into an unwinnable war.

Should we also toss on the fire Dick Gregory's autobiography, written for cross-consumption as a harsh accounting of the racial indignities heaped upon a young black as he travels from boy to man? The book's ultimate satirical trick was to flip the slur into a sales tool. Its title: Nigger! "Whenever you hear the word 'nigger,'" Gregory wrote in the introduction, "you'll know they're advertising my book." Call a man a nigger, earn a brother a dollar...
