Worst of all, journalists pounced on this criticism and covered it at the expense of honoring Mrs. King. In newspapers and on television programs across the country, an otherwise moving tribute to her and her legacy was overshadowed by coverage of this tasteless partisan banter...

Peter Watkins of Mrs. Bush's staff pointed out: "This is like the movie 'The Italian Job,' only in a bus!" In the end, the genius in the Taurus had taken us on a shortcut and actually beat Mrs. Bush to the Villa Madama. And the Olympics don't even open until tomorrow...
