So it hit me the other day! While I was out running, I was occupying my mind, as I often do, by matching up members of the Bush administration with notable characters in literature. (This enormously enjoyable activity kind of grew out of my pre-Christmas web note ruminating on some of the cruel bolts of Dickensian darkness ensconcing our leaders like black woolen tail coats and stove pipe hats down on Pennsylvania Avenue these days... Please don't send me another email Mr. Fezziwig! I won't be talking about our beloved president today!) Anyway I revisited my most startling -and dare I say insightful? - comparison again this morning  as I read the story in the Washington Post about Karl Rove being promoted to Director of Human Resources... er, I mean Deputy Chief of Staff. And once I tell you, once I forever draw back the thin veil that hides the uncontestable truth, you will never be able to look at KR's doughy, bespectacled face the same way again. Are you ready? Karl Rove is Catbert! -JF
