Commentator Mark Shields relays a colleague's observation about how the tragedy in Tucson, Arizona, painted a remarkable picture of the mosaic that is American life:
"...we saw a white Catholic male Republican federal judge murdered on his way to greet his friend, a Democratic Jewish congresswoman. Her life was saved initially by a 20-year-old Mexican-American gay college student and eventually by a Korean-American combat surgeon...and then it was all eulogized and explained by our African-American president."
