1. They've decided to start paying attention to what professional Military
have been saying all along and they have been ignoring.

It's called CYA.

Old Lefty Lawyer gave a great analysis earlier today.

I'll go find that post and copy her comments here. I'll be back in a minute. OK I'm back.

Because:

Congress is out on recess;

it's Holy Week and Passover, so people are preoccupied with families and friends;

no one dares call a Red Alert for fear of being laughed at;

Iraq is worse than ever;

Sy Hersh outed all those bastards;

Scooter Libby just crapped in his own nest and made it bad for the White House (which suggests he's playing his trump card right away, the better to secure a Presidential Pardon);

Cheney has no one to shoot right now since he used up his month's worth of energy throwing out the first ball at the Nats' opener - his "pitch" bounced once before reaching the mound, which proves that CHENEY THROWS LIKE A WUSS;

from today on, for the next week or so, it's nothing but Newsdump Friday, all day, every day;

Karl Rove has gone batshit.

Any more questions?

6. Conyers will chair the House Judiciary Committee in a Dem controlled House
so the right wing wants to discredit him before he begins impeachment proceedures in 2007.
