    I've come to realize that the looseness of the journalistic life, the seeming laxity of the newsroom, is an illusion. Yes, there's informality and there's humor, but beneath the surface lies something deadly serious. It is a code. Sometimes the code is not even written down, but it is deeply believed in. And, when violated, it is enforced with tribal ferocity.

    God, if only the speech were as good as its cadences! The problem is every president since Lincoln has read his Second Inaugural and he thinks HE can do it. The further problem is nearly every president is not a genius. When The One started with his "pick yourself up, dust yourself off" business how many Republicans chimed in, "and start all over again"? Not good. Nor was it good that he seemed to cram as many sentences and platitudes as possible; nor that at times he seemed to ac-cen-chu-ate the negative. Nonetheless the man can speak. The next few years will tell us if he can govern.

    I just hope Mr. Chief Justice's flub was just that.
