Maru's Roundup

Here are two gems uncovered by Maru Soze (link at sidebar): this nice editorial from Joseph Wilson, deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad from 1988 to 1991; and this doozy from the Washington Post about how a long-standing photo exhibit featuring "a historic progression of great diplomatic moments" has been removed from a busy corridor to the State Department cafeteria, replaced by "a George W. Bush family album montage of 21 large photos of the president as diplomat." Talk about revisionist history!
