The Clintons, a horror film that never ends  —  It's alive!  We thought it might be over but some of us never dared fully believe it.  Last week was like one of those moments in a horror movie when the worst terror recedes, the screen goes blank and then reopens on green fields or a lover's tender embrace.

Clinton Went On Limbaugh?  —  You may have missed it - almost everyone missed it - but Bill Clinton was on Rush Limbaugh's show the day of the Texas primary.  You can hear the radio here.  Limbaugh himself was sick that day, apparently, but he had already urged Republicans to cross over to keep Hillary Clinton in the race.

Guitar Heros  —  Guitar Heroes … Men crept in darkness to plant a bomb.  They moved in an area where last year I was helping to collect fallen American soldiers from the battlefield.  —  Terrorists.  The ones who murder children in front of their parents.  The ones who take drugs and rape women and boys.

Ezra Klein / American Prospect:
O'HANLON'S BACK.  —  I don't really know enough about Iraq to adjudicate a debate between Spencer Ackerman and Michael O'Hanlon.  But it certainly seems to me that the New York Times shouldn't simply be reprinting O'Hanlon's “benchmarks” without giving readers some way to evaluate whether they're worth listening to.
