a collection of reactions

There is also a lot of discussion on the wallace-l email list (I've been
a member for years)

Ed wrote about the reading

www.edrants.com/operation-dfw/

One of the pieces he read was for Rolling Stone about September 11th.

He died on September 12th, 2008

The 9-11 piece doesn't seem to be online, but his profile of the 2000 version of John McCain is (an uncut version is available as a short book)

www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/18420304/the_weasel_t...

He reads a 20 minute except about 10 minutes in to the Character Assasination episode
of this American Life (which sadly describes the current campaign except McCain has become Bush)

thislife.org/Radio_Episode.aspx?episode=160

He also talks about politics and McCain in the Believer interview with Dave Eggers

and the end of this intro essay is very political

it mentions this Mark Danner piece
