"A FEW YEARS AGO-I CANNOT recall exactly when, but I suspect it was 2005, after Preseident Bush won his second term-I was on a plane from Nashville to New York and found myself in a conversation with a middle-aged, somewhat beefy man. He asked what I did; I said I was a journalist. His eyes lit up. "Hey, you all in the media like to surprise folks, don't you?" I said yes, we did. "Well, I got an idea for you," he replied. "Why don't you put a picture of George Bush on your cover and say, HEY: 'HE'S NOT SATAN'-that would surprise folks."-Jon Meacham, Newsweek editor
