The New York Times is smitten with Dr. Zeke Emanuel, brother of White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, and special advisor to the budget director on health care.  In a fawning profile of Dr. Emanuel there are times when I feel the urge to turn my head and allow the reporter and Zeke to have a moment:

"Zeke is the oldest of three hard-charging brothers. The youngest, Ari, 48, is a top Hollywood talent agent.

'When we came out of college,' Zeke recalled, 'we had to be in three quarters of the country. We couldn’t get anywhere close to each other because of the force fields of our personalities. Now fortunately we are all fairly well established and much more confident of who we are.'

The divorced father of three daughters age 18, 22 and 25, Dr. Emanuel has an unusual lifestyle.

'I don’t have a car, don’t have a TV, don’t have a house,' he said. 'I do, however, have four cellphones, so go figure.'"

Go figure.  The New York Times likes a leftist social reforming.  Every few years, these people go to Washington, screw something up, deny responsibility, then go home and leave the rest of us with the frustration and pain of their policy prescriptions.  Get ready for damage.
