Okay, I am scandalously behind in journal entries - I have the whole month of May to account for, practically . . . and I will, but first the New York Times winning headline of the week:
Gosh, really? "Repeatedly overstating?" How about,"Trumping up out of thin air?" How about, "One guy with a foreign name is as good as any other guy with a foreign name?"
I know this is a story about a Senate report . . . but the country has gotten awfully darned Orwellian when a bunch of senators spend a bunch of time producing a lengthy report that STATES THE RIDICULOUSLY OBVIOUS, and absolutely nothing happens as a result.
Wry humor is my only defense. Maybe the New York Times is taking that tack, too; who knows?
