The squabbling between political campaigns and the harrumphing of pundits were put in proper perspective at, of all places, the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) dinner - the annual Prom on the Potomac where 2,000 or so media members and movie stars gather to honor the president and admire one another. [...] this year, all were abuzz over the stars, including among the many, George Clooney, Diane Keaton, Goldie Hawn, Steven Spielberg and, of course, Kim Kardashian, without whom no shallow occasion would be complete - and finally, Lindsay Lohan. [...] he had that bearing we recognize in military elites that betrays another kind of space, a private zone where intelligence and readiness keep each other quiet company. William McRaven, leader of the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) that oversaw the raid to kill Osama bin Laden. In a recounting of the eight-month lead-up to the raid, Time magazine features McRaven as part of President Obama's highly secret, and secretive, inner circle. The Obama administration has been taking some flak for touting bin Laden's killing in a campaign ad, including a barb this week from former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Michael Mullen. By Time's telling, Obama clearly deserves credit for the execution of the bin Laden hit.
