The sun has gone dark. Pigs are flying in formation. Dogs mating with cats. And the NYT has published this Brooks piece and the one by Tommy Franks on the same day!

excellent article
Yes, there are two articles chastising Kerry ... but the NYT is also cooking their polling data something fierce and Krugman is just sure there’s a secret plan for the draft. As Okrent would say, "Taken as a whole, there’s a kind of balance," - on the 42nd Tuesday of odd numbered leap years.
Don’t get too excited with our self-appointed intellectual betters throw us a bone.
