Or maybe it should be mongoose and cobra: here's a liberal who can't believe her best friend is a Republican. It's a somewhat encouraging story, but what strikes me as most significant about it is that this should be considered a big deal. Not that I'm surprised that it is; the comments on the piece are…

I thought I vaguely remembered him, or someone, suggesting that there were Christian resonances to be found in it. And maybe there are a few,…
