Acutally the quote "you can run but you can't hide" origianlly was said by Lt. Decatuer of the US Navy while hunting down pirates on the Barbary coast in the early 1800s. He chased a few away in one fight and said "They can run but they can't hide" and has been quoted by many people since then, one of them being Joe Louis who paraphrased it by saying "YOU can run but YOU can't hide". Tripoli was one of the major areas of this region and that is where the line "shores of Tripoli" came about in the Marine Hymn. Just a little something you would think a reporter would know.

I've been very impressed with some NY Times editorials lately (of course I've read them on this site, so I can't say how much they are drowned out by anti-Bush op-eds in the paper proper).
