Hey! Explain to me why this story: “Sadr ministers quit Iraqi cabinet” (ahem. BBC link) isn’t in today’s New York Times. It’s not like there was a lead time problem. This was all over the internet yesterday.

I understand that Sadr has pulled people from the government before, but still. It looks like more civil war to me.

I couldn’t be that Thomas Friedman and his buddies over at NYT are still backing the losing horse of the adminstration. You know. Trying to be reasonable and everything.
