Some random thoughts

Doug Wilson isn't perfect, but this little bit is one big reason that I've kept reading him over the years.  Either that, or I'm a perpilocutionist of the Dorothy Sayers cult. 

Yeah, that sounds about right.  In umbra, igitur, blogabimus!

And I know I'm late to the party, and am at risk of simply piling on, but I can't help but laugh at the fact that our President--famous for adding staff tasked with ignoring FOIA requests--has chosen to not only accept an award for openness in government, but has also done it in a meeting closed to the press. 

Worse yet, apart from Fox, the press doesn't appear to be all to find the abject hypocrisy of it all that news-worthy.  It's a strange world we live in today, but it's much like a world that existed in 1960, when the press knew that a Presidential candidate was avidly adulterous, but didn't deem that worthy of consideration.

Even though that candidate, who was elected, had nearly been court martialed for sleeping with a German spy during World War Two--his father negotiated for him to be transferred to the Pacific on a PT boat.   Let's not think that willful blinders are merely a reality of today.  It's been around for a while.
