Our friend and valued TAP Online contributor Brian Beutler was shot three times last night in a mugging in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of Washington, D.C. Brian is already wise-cracking through the morphine at the hospital, where he has successfully come out of surgery and is expected to make a 100 percent full recovery to his old burrito-eating, Black Cat-lingering, liberal bloggy self.
Best wishes to Brian and his family. We're thinking of ya.
