ted olsen as AG? Why not, he's actually a pretty good liar.

Of course, he's the guy who argued to give us bush as top dog to the Supremes.

They OWE him.

1. Looks like Clement will act until

confirmation hearings.

2. Odds are on chertoff the ghastly.

3. a "pretty good liar" indeed. If anything, you have understated his skill in

that category.

If Gonzales' replacement has to be a Republican, I suppose I'd prefer John Danforth. After Danforth -- who's no great prize generally -- there's a real sharp drop-off.

4. Ted Olsen committed perjury in his first confirmation hearing

when he bald faced lied about the Arkansas Project. He stands absolutely no chance of being confirmed. Bush could slip him in today as a recess appointment, but I don't know if they make anything that would repel the solar-like heat that Bush would have to take.

5. Little Kelly Fitzpatrick whatever mentioned ted.

But her top pick was mikey the malevolent.
