I think it's a wonderful thing whan a serious affliction is cured. Consider: President Clinton's cabinet and staff were almost entirely caucasion. Apparently Mr. Gumbel had a color blindness problem back then. A terrible affliction.
Now, however, when his "team" didn't win the election and at this point really isn't in the game, (Constant whining and critisism is no substitute for leadership) Mr. Gumbel finds color in everything. A Miracle!
