Dear Diary: Today Eric Witholder delivered his report on proposed guidelines for handling investigations of the media. Eric is an old pal whom I am fond of, but he doesn't take criticism kindly, from me, or anybody else. He proposed introducing the death penalty for journalists or bloggers who dare criticize our administration." Eric", I said patiently, "As you know I have my eyes on becoming St. Barack the Humble when I die and putting Rush Limbaugh in front of a firing squad is not going to get me there, however attractive the thought might be. But your idea of giving unfriendly hacks incentives to pursue Mexican drug cartels in search of Fast and Furious weapons and disappearing them that way...that's interesting. It would kill two birds with one stone, as it were." But, sssshhh, enough about me.
