Relatives of the 9/11 dead understandably want to try to punish those who perpetrated the terrorist acts, and those who helped the perpetrators, particularly the Saudis -- and to that end they have not been averse to using lawsuits. Last month President Bush named Thomas Kean to head the panel that will investigate 9/11, and Trent Lott refused to name the families' choice for the panel, Warren Rudman. Now, I really could be reading too much into this, but is it a coincidence that Kean is a member of the board of Common Good, an organization devoted to "reforming America's lawsuit culture"?

Just asking.
