Diversity for Diversity's Sake - Where is this controversy headed? Some of the same neocon bloggers who raised hell over Trent Lott are mad about Thacker's appointment to the AIDS panel, but its obviously a much smaller deal to the general public and the media that feeds off it. (Yeah, it's Page One at the WaPo, but there can't be any sticking power here, right?) It's not the first time there's been a ruckus over Bush and AIDS. Moreover, I'd bet Karl Rove is more sensitive to the bruised feelings of the President's right flank, who are wondering just when they'll get a bone thrown to them. My prediction -- Thacker stays and the Bushies just wait for the hullaballoo to blow over. No one really cares who is on the AIDS commission. What do they do, anyway?
