re: #58 Absalom, Absalom, Obdicut

What a weird place to draw a line in the sand.

Sometimes it really is motivated by an image, Obdi. And I agree with Gus that the cover is bad, showing a terrorist in such a way (‘airbrushed’ being one description I heard). If Rolling Stone wanted a man on the cover for its story, there were plenty of current or former military personnel at the site on the bombing and plenty of cops who did crucial work hunting the terrorist brothers down. Those are the men who should be portrayed well, so that America might better know its heroes.
