Democracy in Action!

Not an entirely new thought to us political junkies following the Sisyphean attempts to drag America's health insurance system through the Senate up to something approximating civilized society, but Hendrik Hertzberg deserves big points for saying it so succinctly:

… the fate of reform may come down to the whims of a tiny handful of preening moderates from states that are mostly empty of people …

This should go without saying, since it's Hendrik Hertzberg, but the whole post, "Lies," is well worth reading.
