...Maydan's spittle-spraying, six-count indictment of America illustrates the principle that a person, when ranting about others, often describes himself. In 1941, for example, Hitler said of Churchill, "For over five years, this man has been chasing around Europe like a madman in search of something he could set on fire." Similarly, any commentator who writes about "arrogance," "tyranny" or "deceit" from an editorial perch in the Islamic Middle East is describing conditions outside his office window...
...devil took the first Beatle, and now God has taken another. When John Lennon was murdered in 1980, it was a sad anomaly, the impossible-to- predict act of a madman.

They both specialize in a kind of entertainment, superhero books, that suddenly seems off-key. Who can now abide the fantasy of an evil madman's nefarious plot to kill thousands of people being foiled by a muscle-bound troglodyte? This question compelled Warner Brothers to indefinitely postpone the release of the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie "Collateral Damage." Superhero publishers don't really have that option since nearly all of their product follows this premise. Instead...
