...Connubial blisters form right after the ceremony, on the newlyweds' drive from San Francisco down to a Mexican resort. Lila knows the words to every song on the radio and brays them at peak pitch. (Could Eddie not have tuned in to something more soothing, like Rush Limbaugh?) In bed, Lila's lovemaking is suspiciously professional: her moves include the Inverted Corkscrew, the Swedish helicopter and the Jackhammer, and she's given to screaming, "F--- me like a black guy, Eddie!" (On the plus side, she got his name right.) By the time Lila has disregarded Eddie's warnings about...
Welcome to the wonderful world of umbrage, the new language of American politics. You would not have thought that the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly would be so sensitive. Sticks and stones and so on. Yet they all seem to have taken one look at that ad and fainted dead away. And when they came round, they demanded - as if with one voice (or at least as if with one list of talking points) - that every Democratic presidential candidate must "condemn" this shocking, shocking document...

...that is precisely the danger here. Fury begets fury. Poison from the right-wing talk shows seeped into the Republican Party's bloodstream and sent that party off the deep end. Limbaugh's show-where Dick Cheney frequently expatiates-has become the voice of the Republican establishment. The same could happen to the Democrats. The spitballs aimed at me don't matter much. The spitballs aimed at Harman, Clinton and Obama are another story. Despite their votes, each of those politicians believes the war must be funded. (Obama even said so in his statement explaining his vote.) Each knows...
