Chron swings, misses on 9-11 march/concert
The Chronicle editorial board almost had it.
They were so close today.
They managed to put out a topic sentence with some potential:
The decision by Bush administration officials to sponsor a march from the site of the 9/11 airliner attack on the Pentagon to a free country music concert in the nation's capital at best exhibits poor taste.
And then, inexplicably, the rest of the editorial goes on to hyperventilate about the war in Iraq and suggest conspiracies.
They just can't help themselves.
A more thoughtful editorial board might have proceeded after that first sentence to question what genius in the White House decided that a march and a Clint Black concert were an appropriate way to commemorate 9-11, a point made by KTRH-740 talker Chris Baker today.
But that wouldn't be our Chronicle.
