We go through our humble little lives, day after day, happily (or not-so-happily) engrossed in our own little dramas and minutiae (yes, I had to look that word up to remember how to spell it. I know how to say it, though. Min-oo-sha.) We read about those who perform acts of bravery, [...]

It’s amazing how much easier it is to listen to Sarah’s speech when William Shatner reads it.

Carl Bernstein has hit the nail on the head.
Journalist Carl Bernstein joined the “Morning Joe” panel to discuss Sarah Palin formally relinquishing the governorship of Alaska yesterday.
