Is the GOP a cult? (Gene Lyons)
My pal Gene nails it again. Thanks Gene!

Is there anybody who's forgotten exactly what President George W. Bush was doing on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001? He was in a Florida classroom, reading to schoolchildren. Because it was televised, almost everybody witnessed Bush's stunned reaction to the al-Qaida terrorist atrocity. It would be years before we learned that one reason for the president's deer-in-the-headlights look was: OMG, what if anybody finds out I blew off that CIA briefing?

2. I smell something.
Just a hint of pepperoni. This is how it usually starts. I guess we'll have to wait and see...
