Danger: Illogic Ahead

There are some lines of argument so preposterous that perhaps the best approach is to try a little shock and awe with a complete non-sequiter lead sentence, to get one thinking...He's not really going to try and actually make that argument, is he? And then perhaps be impressed when he does. This is the only possible explanation for the opening sentence on OpinionJournal.Com today (they of the 9-11 = Epiphany school of analysis):

Yesterday's Supreme Court ruling in Grutter v. Bollinger, in which the court upheld the use of racial preferences in admissions at the University of Michigan Law School, helps illuminate why the claim that President Bush "lied" about Iraq is nonsense.

We tried to follow the chain of er, thought, here. There is none.
