"With Paterson, the Simple Facts Can Get Complicated."

Okay, who wrote that NYT headline? I read it, and my brain plays (the greatest single of all time) The Who's "Substitute":

But I'm a substitute for another guy
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated...

But they couldn't write "With Paterson, the simple things you see are all complicated"... because Governor Paterson is blind.
