...only after the fact, after the images come in. It’s enough to make a postmodern literary critic explode: things which happened in the past are not going to become real until the future, when the photographs and videos bring them into our present. President Bush and Dick Cheney may not have seen the Vietnam War, but they have seen enough pictures of it to know the power of images. They know that the best way to prevent something that has already happened is to make sure no one sees it. That?...

A welfare-reform bill, which would toughen work requirements, got caught in a tussle over whether to raise the minimum wage. Meanwhile, even with gasoline prices rising, the energy bill that was once a top priority for Dick Cheney is now limping along; some Democrats are trying to break it up to pass the salvageable parts, like measures aimed at preventing another blackout. The one major bill that has moved through both houses lately--a measure to expand and repair the nation's highways--is in trouble with...
