You might recall that I had a brilliant insight last week that was, sadly, lost to me due to the need for sleep.
Now I remember what it was, prompted in part by something Tina Korbe wrote at Hot Air yesterday.
It’s related, if a bit tangentially. And it’s not something I can bang out in a quick paragraph or two. Watch here next week for more.

The Washington Post’s Michael Gerson, discussing the Obama administration’s abrogation of religious liberty:
The implications of Obama’s power grab go further than contraception and will provoke opposition beyond Catholicism. Christian colleges and universities of various denominations will resist providing insurance coverage for abortifacients. And the astounding ambition of this federal precedent will soon be apparent to every religious institution. Obama is claiming the executive authority to determine which missions of believers are religious and which are not — and then to aggressively regulate institutions the government declares to be secular. It is a view of religious liberty so narrow and privatized that it barely covers the space between a believer’s ears.
