Minor celebrity sighting

The other day, I was in the Baja Fresh at Dupont Circle. I saw a Peter Beinart -looking fellow walk by jabbering about the Republican base, but I figured it must not have been 'em because the New Republic's offices are practically on the other side of town. (Why would someone travel forever to get Baja Fresh in the middle of the day?) But now I've just realized that Beinart is at the Council on Foreign Relations, whose offices are in Dupont.

It all makes sense now.
