• Those who hear not the music …

  … think the dancers mad.
  I think tonight a pivotal moment occured in American culture and history. You can read the reaction to the sea change on the comment threads of liberal blogs across the internet, where reaction to Michelle Obama’s speech is taxing servers to their limits.
