My first diary entry is an extraordinary article by Bill Moyers, who I consider to be one of the finest chroniclers of our country and our times:
One of the biggest changes in politics in my lifetime is that the delusional is no longer marginal. It has come in from the fringe, to sit in the seat of power in the Oval Office and in Congress. For the first time in our history, ideology and theology hold a monopoly of power in Washington.

I hope I did this right.
Scary, scary stuff.
