In my e-mail inbox, two messages, one on top of the other. The first, from the New Republic, reads: “Today at TNR Online: Bush’s Diminished Presidency.” The second, right underneath, from the Republican National Committee, announces: “What They’re Saying About President Bush’s State Of The Union Address.” I bet that doesn’t include the New Republic‘s line (which in any case no one will read because TNR wants readers to pay for its web content!).
