"Political language -- and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists -- is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind."

The Price Is Right
Funny how our beloved senator, fresh from caving on Surfin' Mike Mukasey's AG appointment, wasted no time in running out here and assigning blame to the Coast Guard (whose response was admittedly unacceptable), while mentioning precious little about the new crew on the Cosco ship which collided into the Bay Bridge. Can it be that her husband still has "consultant" dealings with that company these days? I'm sure it's just coincidence. It always is.
