Supporters of the Truth and Reconciliation process marched silently from Nelson Johnson's church on Arlington Street to the Weaver Center for this afternoon's public hearing, accompanied by a documentary film crew. Nelson and Joyce Johnson led the march past Confederate monuments on Martin Luther King Jr Drive.                               The Weaver center was crowded and it took a while to get everyone through security. The hearings started a little late; they are scheduled to go on through 9:00 this evening and much of the day tomorrow. 3:49:30 PM   permalink   comment []

Allen Johnson says the N&R letters blog has gotten its 10,000th comment. "That means two things: A tremendous, sustained level of participation. And a majority of commenters who far outnumber the trolls. "That's why this is a forum well worth saving. And building on." 12:35:31 PM   permalink   comment []

NYT: "By itself, the disclosure that Mr. Rove had spoken to a second journalist about Ms. Wilson may not necessarily have a bearing on his exposure to any criminal charge in the case." John Sterling thinks nobody cares but Democrats.  Chris Nolan says nobody cares but insiders -- her piece is worth reading once you get past the cynical schtick at the top. Krugman says, "we're living in a country in which there is no longer such a thing as nonpolitical truth." 11:18:50 AM   permalink   comment []
