Here are some remains of the day:
* Another plagiarism blowup, this time involving an editor at Buzzfeed.
* Once-promising bipartisan VA “fix” near collapse.
* Another botched lethal injection execution, this one in Arizona.
* At Ten Miles Square, Jim Sleeper examines the “Superman syndrome” among pundits ever agitating for U.S. military interventions.
* At College Guide, Daniel Luzer discusses the practicality–and justice–of asking grandparents to help pay for kids’ college educations.
And in non-political news:
* Essay on film/TV career of eccentric genius Mike Leach, football coach at Wazzou and pirate enthusiast.
