Sounds like a good tag line for the business card.

That's right. Now I remember. DeGuerin argued that chopping up the body showed that whomever killed the guy - not saying it was his client, of course - lacked the clear thinking about what he was doing and so must have been doing it in self defense. Or something.

On the basis that the prosecutor was on a partisan witchhunt?

78-22 was the vote to confirm, considerably higher than his predecessor.

No word yet on the O'Connor nomination.

Keep mocking, the Red States enjoy controlling the government.

Over the past 10 weeks, many people who I did not know came up to me and offered encouragement and support. Many of them told me that I and my family was in their prayers and in their hopes.

I want to thank all of those people. I will need, in the months and years ahead, that encouragement and those prayers.

Amen. And the babyjesuschristsuperstar and the legions of the unborn lambs smiled.

DOA. The more interesting question is how long he pushes that nomination, given that if he doesn't get someone confirmed by Thanksgiving, he might not get someone in this term. And that means a new Senate to deal with some time in 2007.

1. Not DOA.

2. Janice Rogers Brown is the fallback. There is no way she goes down.

3. What does the 2007 mean? There is no Senate in session for the whole of 2006? I am missing something? What year is this?

So, Miller is going to talk, and apparently the person she talked to about Plame was I. Lewis Libby, Cheney's chief of staff. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/29/po...pagewanted=all

Novak's column was July 14. Miller talked to Cheney's chief of staff on July 8. Does anyone know when the conversation between Rove and Cooper occurred? I couldn't find it after looking for all of five minutes on cnn's site.

Is Cheney's chief of staff a "member of the administration"? or whatever the term Bush used.
