As our illustrious leaders in
Washington, D.C. do the usual
cover your ass/
blame game two-step, -- today the tune to which
they dance is "Who Can Turn
September 11, 2001 into a
Political Edge? I can! I can!" --
let us meditate on this
axiom of
bureaucracy:
"A memorandum is written not to inform the reader,
but to protect the writer."
-- Dean Acheson
