Note to readers: I try to keep this place an oasis from national and international politics as much as possible, which is why there was no mention yesterday of the grotesque tragedy in Virginia.

And, frankly, after surfing the blogs, watching the cable nets and listening to talk radio hosts, I got the distinct impression that way too many people were using the horrific events to score one cheap political point after another and take potshots at their perceived “enemies.” I’m in no mood to see that happen here.

There are many, many websites where you can express your horror, shock, grief and outrage about yesterday’s tragedy, but let’s try not to let it leak in here for now.

Thanks.
