It ’ s true that Bush is merely a drunken sock puppet for the neocons, but an impeachment can include the vice president and cabinet members. Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz and Condoleezza Rice as well as Dubya could be and MUST BE simultaneously impeached for lying the United Stated into the illegal war on Iraq. We must impeach them now or there will be more illegal wars. Full story »

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23 (UPI) — The CIA leak inquiry that threatens senior White House aides has now widened to include the forgery of documents on African uranium that started the investigation, according to NAT0 intelligence sources. This suggests the inquiry by special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald into the leaking of the identity of undercover CIA officer Valerie Plame has now widened to embrace part of the broader question about the way the Iraq war was justified by the Bush administration.

UN office doctored report on murder of Hariri (Hat tip: Instapundit) Quote: THE United Nations withheld some of the most damaging allegations against Syria in its report on the murder of Rafik Hariri, the former Lebanese Prime Minister, it emerged yesterday. But the best part? Quote: The confidential changes were revealed by an extraordinary computer gaffe because an electronic version distributed by UN officials on Thursday night allowed recipients to track editing changes. Thank you, Bill Gates, for making MS Word needlessly complex and full of moronic default settings. For years I've cursed the way Word works, and the annoyance of dealing with documents shipped with all their changes still embedded. But this makes up for quite a bit.

My third variable, "cuteness" is a mostly objective measure of how innocent a given model looked. It's determined by a combination of a lot of factors: lack of dark eye makeup, facial expression, posture, etc. If you scored high on that variable, you are either really nice OR you 're into deflowering teens. If you scored low, you are attracted to raunchier, sexier, women. In your case, your lower than average score suggests you appreciate a sexier, naughtier look. Kudos!

Written by David Benioff. Directed by Marc Forster. Starring Ewan Mcgregor, Naomi Watts, Ryan Gosling, Bob Hoskins, and Kate Burton. Of course I wanted to see this movie. And I enjoyed it. But I knew even as I was enjoying it that it was going to be critically lambasted and overlooked by audiences. Sure enough, Aaron checked the freshness rating at Rotten Tomatoes at it's running at twentysomething. Ebert liked it. And if you liked "Passages" by Connie Willis, this is very similar.

All that, and the Vikings managed to pull out a victory as well. I don't even want to know what they did to celebrate. Indeed, those goofballs at the Star Tribune, after Paul Edinger won with a team-record 56-year-old field goal, gave their game story the comical headline "The Love Boot."

Over at the New York Times it's a fearful foursome on top of Judy Miller, with Editor Bill Keller, Ombudsman Byron Calame and even reluctant, steak-buying Pinch Sulzberger trying (and failing) to outscratch Maureen Dowd, as Little Miss Run Amok pens desperate little notes of dismayal.

Dan Brown's lawyers are having a very good year. More authors are trying to get on The Da Vinci Code gravy train by claiming that Brown stole their ideas. The BBC reports: We don't have a clue about British copyright law, but in the U.S. ideas are not protectable under copyright. And that particular theory has been espoused in numerous books over the years, many of which Brown cites in The Da Vinci Code as sources. So, unless these authors are claiming that Brown copied their books verbatim, they seem unlikely to win at trial. It's interesting that J.K. Rowling has also faced her share of similar claims: it's the ugly side of success.

"With special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald appearing close to indicting top White House officials in the CIA leak investigation, the probe is likely to accelerate second-term turnover in the Bush administration," the Wall Street Journal reports. "Anyone indicted in the case likely would have to leave office, setting off a search for successors."

I just saw the new BBC Sherlock Holmes movie on PBS: Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Silk Stocking. Bah. I'm not sure if it's the fault of the screenwriter, but the story was more like a thriller and not like a true solvable conundrum like the Poirot mysteries are. Agatha Christie always played "fair" by leaving all the necessary clues in plain sight. And it's a charming mental exercise to to figure everything out before Poirot tells you. I must confess that I haven't read many Sherlock Holmes stories before (and I believe I last read one when I was in middle school), but I don't recall having a very positive reaction. Plus Rupert Everett always strikes me as a pompous, world-weary bore in his interviews.

Treasury Secretary John Snow "plans to announce a nominee to replace" retiring Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan "at a White House press conference today at 1 p.m, an administration official tells The Hotline. While the nominee was not identified, the official suggested the pick will not be a surprise. Buzz in recent weeks has focused on Ben Bernanke, chair of the President's Council of Economic Advisors and a former Fed board member. Another potential candidate is ex-bush economic advisor R. Glenn Hubbard."

shameless plug for Grey's Anatomy... the show may not be the greatest, but I've never heard such a good selection of music, ever. Songs I've never heard of, but now want desperately, as a matter of fact. And Sandra Oh is, as always, fabulous. Patrick Dempsey, as always, incredibly good looking - him being a good actor helps too. So watch. * steps off soapbox *

I wrote a song in my head last night about killing love by writing its death and it seemed good at the time. Me and Bobby Mcgee is always a good song. And Janis Joplin was prettier without big breasts. And Jonathan sucks. Yeah, you heard me.
