My M.O. (in response to Rick)

In response to Rick:

Sometimes I see something of interest on a topic of interest to MOJ readers.  One such topic:  Obama's faith-based initiative proposal.   And when I do, I sometimes call the attention of MOJ readers to what I see.  Yesterday I linked to what David Skeel had to say about Obama's proposal (here).  Today I linked to what Cathy Kaveny had to say (here).  If I thought that *I* had something of interest to say, I would say it.  But sometimes my highest, best service is not to say anything myself--because I have nothing of particular interest to say--but just to call the attention of MOJ readers to what someone else has to say.  Now, Tom Berg, by contrast, does have something--indeed, many things--of interest to say about Obama's proposal, but because he has said them here, at MOJ, there was no need for me to link to what Tom has said.  I notice, by the way, that Tom has posted a comment at dotCommonweal in response to Cathy's post.  [UPDATE:  Rick too has posted a comment at dotCommonweal.]

As Ross Perot might say, it's just that simple.
