...within a community, the urgency to no clear end - is a reflection of life on any movie set. Or in any political campaign (Tanner '88, the TV series he concocted with Garry Trudeau, plays now like a prophetic parody of media manipulation by such masters as James Carville and Karl Rove). Or any reception (A Wedding), convention (H.E.A.L.T.H.), concert (Nashville), casino spree (California Split), couture opening (Ready to Wear), country weekend (Gosford Park) or old-time radio show (A Prairie Home Companion).

...Laden remains a very significant person," U.S. Army Lieutenant General Karl Eikenberry, the top American officer in Afghanistan, said Tuesday at the Pentagon. "It's critical for, I think, all of the world that bin Laden - a man who has committed atrocities that have affected our nation at great loss of lives, at great loss of treasure - that this man is one day brought to justice and he is either captured or he's killed."

Put it into dialogue with previous readings, with the sole lecture you’ve been to, or with Karl Marx/Jacques Derrida/Ferdinand de Saussure (choose one). Hell, put it into dialogue with itself.

...fact, Lott is still angry at the White House - and especially Karl Rove - for the way he was so unceremoniously dumped, so he may not be as willing as other Republicans to do the Administration's bidding. That's only one of the risks the choice of Lott for such a prominent position carries. Republicans replaced him as their leader because they worried that his remarks about Thurmond didn't reflect well for a party trying to win minority voters and even moderate white voters by diversifying its ranks and avoiding race-baiting tactics it has used in the past...
