I’m trying to find the right analogy to describe how I feel about the Koch/Cato kerfuffle. Is it like how you feel when your mother and your wife are fighting? Or your wife and your kids? Or your two kids or best friends? Your parents divorcing (my parents have been married for 100 years or somewhere close to that, so I’m not sure about this one)? Something else altogether?
Is it enough to say that I have great respect and admiration for both organizations and their staffs, and what they’ve both done for a free society in my lifetime? I’m sure I’ll have a more certain opinion as I learn more (and I do have an opinion forming rather than being completely on the fence), but right now I’m mostly sad to see these great organizations at war (though some wars are necessary).

This (http://volokh.com/2012/03/03/koch-v-cato-a-view-from-cato/#more-56521) certainly makes it seem as if the Kochs want Cato to walk a GOP party line. That sure would be boring: just what America needs, another Heritage Foundation or AEI.
